Care Instructions
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your Run Star Trainers:
- Cleaning the Nylon Upper: Gently wipe dirt and stains with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning Suede Overlays: For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a small amount of white vinegar on a clean cloth can be used carefully. Always brush in one direction.
- Cleaning the Rubber Sole: Use a stiff brush or an old toothbrush with warm water and mild soap to scrub away grime from the rubber sole and ribbed sections.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration and material degradation. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and construction.
