Care Instructions
Proper care is crucial to maintain the premium leather and unique appearance of your Adidas x BAPE Superstar sneakers.
- Regular Cleaning: Gently wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after each wear to remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
- Spot Treatment: For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Always air dry sneakers away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Never put them in a dryer, as this can damage the leather.
- Protection: Apply a leather protector spray suitable for sneakers to create a barrier against water and stains. Reapply periodically as per product instructions.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a breathable shoe bag, to maintain their shape and prevent dust buildup. Use shoe trees to help preserve the silhouette.
- Avoid Water: As these are leather sneakers, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water.
