Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Force 1s last, start by using a water-repellent spray specifically safe for suede and leather before your first wear. For everyday care, wipe the leather sections with a soft, damp cloth. Use a specialized suede brush to remove debris or dried mud from the heel and Swoosh panels; avoid getting the suede overly wet, as this can affect its texture. Ensure the lacing is adjusted for a snug fit to prevent excessive heel slip. Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to fade or the colors to yellow over time.
