Care Instructions
Proper care will preserve the look and longevity of your Yeezy 450s:
- Initial Protection: Consider applying a sneaker protector spray designed for knit materials to repel water and stains.
- Cleaning the Knit Upper: Gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth or a soft-bristled brush (like a toothbrush) using mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing, which can damage the knit. For tougher stains, use a specialized sneaker cleaner for knit fabrics. Always air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: The EVA midsole and rubber outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. A brush can help remove dirt from crevices. Ensure all soap residue is rinsed off.
- Insole Care: The Ortholite insole can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried to maintain freshness.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use.
