Care: 

Plain Leather: Apply a thin layer of leather balm and once it’s dry, gently brush to keep the finish of the leather always in good conditions. Opt for softer hog bristles to make sure you don’t damage your sneakers. A leather protector spray is also an option to consider.

Suede: Use a brush to gently remove any dirt or dust. Brush in the direction of the fabric’s grain to avoid damaging it. Dry stains can be removed by using a white or brown gum eraser. If it doesn't work we advise you to visit your local cobbler and get additional advice.

Nubuck: Nubuck cloths are the best option to remove dirt and shiny spots. Wipe in several directions using circular motions and make sure you cover the entire nap area.

Rubber Soles: Clean the dirt with a dampened cloth and carefully soak the sole in a mixture of water and dishwashing soap. Make sure you don’t soak the upper part! Use a toothbrush with the mixture to scrub your soles. Once it’s done, dry the sneakers using a cloth.

My name is Chayra, I am 17 years old, I live in Lisbon, and I am involved in several social and artistic projects — that’s how I first got to know iMAGINE. I see myself as an eclectic person with a strong drive to bring my projects to life. I consider these to be my biggest strengths, as they allow me to connect with many people and explore a bit of everything. On the other hand, I think my greatest challenge is dealing with the pressure I feel in different situations, especially when it comes to my artistic projects. One of my goals is to one day produce a short film — I want my creations to leave a mark on people and inspire them in some way. For my sneakers, I found this model the most appropriate because it feels nostalgic to me, with a main reference to the 80s and 90s. The colors I chose were also inspired by the shades commonly used in jeans.|section-left||section-right||section-right|
