Care and Maintenance for Nylon Trainers
To ensure your SL 72 trainers maintain their appearance and durability, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning the Nylon Upper:
- Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush or cloth.
- Mix a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) with cool water.
- Dampen a clean cloth or sponge with the soapy water and gently wipe down the nylon upper. Do not oversaturate the material.
- Use a separate cloth dampened with plain water to wipe off any soap residue.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole:
- Use a brush or old toothbrush with soapy water to scrub dirt from the EVA midsole and rubber outsole.
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
- Drying:
- Allow the trainers to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources.
- You can stuff them with newspaper or paper towels to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Storage:
- Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures.
- Avoid:
- Do not machine wash or machine dry your trainers, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Do not use harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to water or damp conditions.
