Care Instructions
Given the diverse materials used in the upper (leather, nubuck, mesh, nylon, suede, synthetic, pony hair accents), proper care is crucial to maintain their appearance and longevity.
- General Cleaning: For light dirt, gently brush off loose debris with a soft-bristled brush. For tougher spots, use a damp cloth with a mild, pH-neutral soap or specialized sneaker cleaner diluted in water.
- Material-Specific Care:
- Leather & Nubuck: Use cleaners specifically designed for these materials. Apply in small amounts and gently wipe with a clean cloth. For nubuck, use a nubuck brush after cleaning to restore the nap.
- Mesh & Nylon: These areas can generally be cleaned with a soft brush and mild soap solution. Avoid aggressive scrubbing.
- Pony Hair Accents: Treat very gently. Use a soft, damp cloth to dab clean. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive rubbing that could damage the texture.
- Drying: Always air dry your sneakers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can damage materials and adhesives.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for mixed materials to help protect your shoes from the elements.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
