How To Care For Your Asics Sneakers

Asics sneakers are crafted from a plethora of fabrics, such as leather, faux leather, mesh, suede and technical nylon. So when it comes to keeping your Asics sneakers looking clean, there are different ways of washing them depending on the material. Follow our tips below for the most effective methods of washing.

• Fabric

If your sneakers are made from fabric, such as mesh or technical nylon, surface dirt should be removed with a brush. Then, if required, a foam-based cleaning product should be applied to get rid of stains. It’s worth investing in a water-proofing spray to prevent dirt from penetrating into the fabric.

• Leather

Leather is seen on the uppers of the Kiko Kostadinov X Gel-Korika sneakers and is easily washable with water and a foam-based cleaning product.

• Nubuck or Suede

To protect the tactile finish of nubuck or suede, you should gently brush off any surface dirt and use water and a foam cleaning product for stubborn stains. Once dry, the shoe should be brushed again to restore its soft, velvety texture. These fabrics can be treated with a water-proofing spray.
