  • Suede/Nubuck (if applicable to specific colorways): Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and maintain texture. Protect with a suede protector spray.
  • Laces: Remove laces and hand-wash them separately with mild soap and water.
  • Insoles: If removable, take them out and air them regularly to prevent odor.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
