Your sneakers deserve the best care to last. Here are our tips for keeping your shoes looking new.
Essentials for sneaker care
- Soft brush: for cleaning the sole and fabric areas
- Cleaning cream: suitable for leather for models like the Air Force 1 or Samba
- Waterproofing spray: to be applied before first use
- Shoehorn: to avoid crushing the heel when putting them on
Cleaning leather sneakers (Air Force 1, Samba, Dunk)
Use a slightly damp cloth with a mild cleaner. Avoid soaking the leather in water. For yellowed white soles, a little baking soda mixed with water works wonders. Air dry, never in direct sunlight.
Cleaning mesh sneakers (Yeezy 350, Air Max)
Mesh is more delicate. Use a soft brush and a neutral soap diluted in lukewarm water. Brush gently in circular motions. Rinse with a damp cloth and let air dry naturally.
Storing your sneakers
Store your sneakers in their original boxes with crumpled newspaper inside to help maintain their shape. Avoid damp places. For valuable pairs, clear plastic boxes with silica gel are ideal.
Mistakes to avoid
- Never put your sneakers in the washing machine (guaranteed deformation)
- Avoid tumble dryers and direct heat
- Do not use bleach on white soles (yellowing)
- Always let them dry before re-lacing them
