How to clean your Comets.
Caution
Different materials require different cleaning methods. Always check the material-specific instructions before cleaning your pair.
Common questions
01 What should I use to clean my Comets?
Use a microfibre cloth or a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Since different materials react differently to water and cleaning products, always clean each material separately. Please refer to the next question, Material-Specific Cleaning Instructions, before cleaning your pair.

03 How do I clean suede?

- Use a dry soft cloth or suede brush to remove dust and dirt.
- Brush gently after every few wears to prevent dirt buildup.
- Do not soak, scrub or machine wash suede.
04 How should I dry my shoes after cleaning?
Always air dry at room temperature. Keep them away from direct sunlight, heaters, radiators, and hair dryers.
Stuff the inside with newspaper or paper towels to help absorb moisture and retain the shoe's shape while drying.
05 How should I store my Comets?
Store them indoors in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and humidity.
For long-term storage, stuff the shoes with paper to help maintain their shape.
06 Can I use detergent or cleaning liquids?
Use only mild soap and water where applicable. Please refer to Question 2: Material-Specific Cleaning Instructions before cleaning your pair. Avoid bleach, alcohol-based cleaners and harsh chemicals. Always test any cleaning product on a small, hidden area first.
07 What are things to avoid?
- Do not put your shoes in the washing machine. It can damage the materials, sole bonding and overall shape of the sneaker.
- Avoid soaking your shoes in water.
- Avoid wearing your sneakers in heavy rain. However, pairs made entirely from faux leather can withstand mild water exposure if dried promptly.
- Do not use hard brushes or scrub aggressively.
- Avoid direct heat while drying.
08 How do I remove bad odour?
Remove the insoles after wear and allow the shoes to air out naturally. For stronger odour, sprinkle baking soda inside overnight and shake it out the next day.
