To ensure you can enjoy your unique, hand-painted Trittkunst sneakers for a long time, we have put together the most important care and cleaning instructions for you. Please follow these tips to protect the colors and materials.
Regular Care
- Apply a waterproofing spray before wearing them for the first time (especially for leather).
- Brush gently on a regular basis to remove loose dirt.
- Store in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight.
Stain Treatment & Cleaning
- Treat fresh stains immediately.
- Use a damp, soft cloth or a sponge (no abrasive sponges).
- Use a mild soap solution or a special sneaker cleaner. Rub gently, do not scrub hard.
Washing Machine & Chemicals
Do not wash in the washing machine! The heat and tumbling can damage the colors and the structure of the shoe.
- Do not use strong solvents, bleach, or harsh chemical cleaners.
Drying
- Let the shoes air dry.
- Do not place them on a heater or put them in the dryer.
- Stuff them with newspaper to help maintain their shape.
Important Notes
- The hand-painted area is durable but not scratch-resistant.
- Avoid direct contact with rough surfaces or sharp objects.
- Color changes over time are natural and a sign of authenticity.
