So, your sneaker game is strong\u00a0\u2014 you’ve invested in a hot new pair of sneakers<\/a> for the summer season and you’re ready to step out in style this weekend. Of course,\u00a0the great outdoors can be an unforgiving place for a brand-new, clean pair of kicks and keeping them looking their best isn’t always easy. But, that’s no reason to keep your sneakers hidden away in your cupboard at home, a great shoe is made to be enjoyed. If you want to protect your fashion ‘investment’ and get the most out of your new, most likely, pricey pair of sneakers then follow these 3 tricks to\u00a0keep your sneakers in tip-top shape.<\/p>\n

1. Bust the dust<\/h4>\n

Most of us tend to stash our light-coloured sneakers in the back of our cupboards during the winter months. If you haven’t worn your sneakers in a little while it’s time for some spring cleaning. Summer is here, which means you’re going to spend loads of time outside socialising at braais, picnics, and festivals giving you the perfect reason to dust off those sneakers before your social calendar blows up. If your sneakers are dusty wipe them off with a soft\u00a0premium sneaker brush<\/a>\u00a0and leave them out to air before you wear them.<\/p>\n

2. Skip the machine<\/h4>\n

A classic pair of white sneakers is a season must-have, but they are also very likely to get dirty. While tossing your sneakers in the washing machine or dryer may seem like a good idea; this can create permanent damage to your shoes. Some materials absorb water and will warp in the water or lose their cushioning in heat. If you love your kicks, keep them away from the machine and try a sneaker cleaning spray or wipes<\/a> instead.\u00a0With a bit of care, you can get those sneakers looking as good as new in no time.<\/p>\n

3. Keep them in shape<\/h4>\n

If you have seasonal footwear and are packing away your winter styles, make sure you clean your sneakers before you store them away. Put them in water-proof, dust-proof boxes in a dry spot and fill them with tissue paper to keep them smelling fresh. Try using a product like Sneaker LAB\u2019s Sneaker Protector<\/a> before you store them away to ensure they stay in mint condition until you\u2019re ready to wear them next year.<\/p>\n
