Hi,

I have a pair of commons projects sneakers that I want to last, should I let them rest between use? Or is that advise only valid for those who wear leather soled shoes daily...

(a yes means I'll spend 2000 nok on another pair so I want to be certain...)

Thanks

some tissue paper in the inside. maybe some kind of cleaning spray on the outside, make sure you rub it in, leave in a cool place to allow them to dry properly.

If I were to suggest a thing, it would be letting the shoes off, regardless what how they possess materials.

I´d rotate them with some other shoes. Rather logical that the shoes will last longer if not worn every day.

Make sure your sneakers have a chance to rest for a good 8-10 hours a day. Quality rest, a healthy diet, and regular exercise will have your sneakers feeling months younger.

I heard if you bathe them in clorox and ammonia they last you for the rest of your life...
