Care Instructions
Maintaining your ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers, especially those with leather uppers, is crucial for their appearance and durability.
- Initial Protection (Optional): Consider applying a leather protectant spray before the first wear to help repel water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials.
- Spot Cleaning: For tougher marks or scuffs on leather, use a small amount of mild leather cleaner applied to a soft cloth. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
- Odor Prevention: After wear, remove insoles to allow them and the shoe interior to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or cedar shoe trees.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing them with tissue paper or using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your trainers. Harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing can damage the materials.
