Care
Proper care will significantly extend the life and appearance of your leather Air Force 1s:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth after each wear to remove surface dirt.
- Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaning solution designed for leather. Apply with a soft brush, scrub gently, and wipe clean.
- Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray (suitable for leather) before first wear and periodically thereafter.
- Drying: If wet, air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can dry out and crack the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Never machine wash leather sneakers, as this can damage the material and adhesives.
