Cleaning your Nike Air Max Excee sneakers is best achieved by removing excess dirt with a soft brush and then using a gentle soapy solution. Here's a detailed breakdown:
Step-by-Step Cleaning Guide
-
Remove Excess Dirt: Use a soft-bristled brush (an old toothbrush or a dedicated shoe brush works well) to gently brush away any loose dirt or debris from the outsole, midsole, and upper of the Air Max Excee.
-
Prepare a Cleaning Solution: Mix warm water with a small amount of mild laundry detergent or dish soap. You want a slightly soapy solution, not overly bubbly.
-
Clean the Shoes: Dip a soft cloth or brush into the soapy water and gently scrub the dirty areas of the shoes. Pay close attention to stained or heavily soiled spots. Avoid soaking the shoes completely.
-
Rinse: Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe away the soap residue. Repeat as necessary until all the soap is gone.
-
Air Dry: Allow the shoes to air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat, as this can damage the materials. You can stuff the shoes with paper towels to help them retain their shape and absorb excess moisture. Replace the paper towels as they become damp.
Additional Tips
- For stubborn stains: Consider using a specialized shoe cleaner designed for the specific materials of your Air Max Excee.
- Clean laces separately: Remove the laces and wash them separately in the soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and air dry.
- Protect your shoes: After cleaning and drying, consider applying a fabric protector spray to help repel future dirt and stains.
By following these steps, you can effectively clean your Air Max Excee sneakers and keep them looking their best.
