Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 1890s maintain their structure and aesthetic, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften to your foot's unique contours.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry debris from the mesh panels. Wipe the leather sections with a damp cloth; avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Protection: Apply a water-repellent spray formulated for leather and mesh to protect against seasonal moisture and stains.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or color fading.
