Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Force 1 trainers last as long as possible, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Before the first wear, apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to help protect against elements.
- Routine Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a dry cloth to remove loose dirt from the surface after each use.
- Spot Cleaning: If the leather becomes stained, wipe it gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.
- Air Drying: Always let your shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
- Fit Check: Ensure the size 5.5 UK fit allows for a small amount of wiggle room for the toes to accommodate growth and thick socks.
