Their minimalist yet distinctive design makes them suitable for various casual environments, from city streets to relaxed outdoor gatherings.
Care
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Nike ACG Rufus, especially with its denim upper:
- Spot Clean: For dirt and minor stains, use a soft brush or cloth with a small amount of mild detergent mixed with cool water. Gently rub the affected area.
- Rinse (Minimal): Wipe clean with a separate damp cloth to remove soap residue. Avoid saturating the shoe, particularly the denim material, as this can affect its color and structure.
- Air Dry: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, such as radiators or hairdryers, which can cause material damage or fading.
- Deep Cleaning (Denim): For persistent stains or a more thorough clean of the denim upper, consider using products specifically designed for denim care. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
- Odor Prevention: To minimize odors, allow shoes to fully air out between wears and consider using shoe deodorizers or cedar shoe trees.
