Summary
There are two maintenance purposes for basketball shoes: one is performance maintenance, and the other is appearance maintenance. The maintenance method in terms of performance mainly lies in the correct storage of shoes, while the maintenance of appearance mainly reflects the scientific cleaning of shoes, and sometimes the two are integrated.
In terms of preservation methods, due to the wide variety of raw materials used in the production of basketball shoes, such as leather, cloth, nylon, non dragon, seamless rubber, etc., the production process is relatively complex, and there are also many adhesive bonding places. It is these materials that ensure the performance of a pair of shoes, and maintaining performance depends on proper handling of the shoes to prevent the aforementioned materials from aging. Therefore, the correct method of saving writes should pay attention to the following points.
Placement environment
Firstly, shoes should be placed in a relatively dry and ventilated place, avoiding direct sunlight, as a damp environment can cause the shoe body to deteriorate, and exposure to sunlight can cause some materials of the shoes to deteriorate and discolor. But the place where the shoes are placed should not be too dry, as it can cause leather cracking.
Secondly, when storing shoes, soft paper balls should be stuffed inside the shoes. The main purpose of doing so is that the paper balls can absorb residual moisture inside the shoes and keep them dry, which is also beneficial for maintaining the stability of the shoe shape and preventing it from "collapsing" after use.
Thirdly, it is particularly important to mention that for collectible storage, it is best to buy some shrink wrap to completely wrap a pair of shoes like in a shoe store, in order to maximize the isolation of the shoes from the air and prevent continuous oxidation of the shoes by the air over a long period of time. For example, Nike's visible air cushions such as the Max Air or the outsoles of the Jordan 11th and 16th generations will gradually turn yellow over a few years. Using shrink wrap to maintain the original color is a good choice.
