Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Force 1 trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray before first use to create a protective barrier against dirt and liquids.
- Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For the white leather, a damp cloth with mild soap is usually sufficient. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Floral Care: Clean around the floral graphics gently using a soft sponge to avoid fading or scratching the custom design elements.
- Storage: Keep the sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather and colors to yellow or fade over time.
- Fit Check: Ensure you select the correct UK size, as the structure of the AF1 provides a firm, secure fit that does not stretch significantly over time.
