1. Regular cleaning: the importance of a maintenance routine
Regular cleaning of your boxing shoes is crucial to maintaining their appearance and performance. Here's how to do it:
-
Cleaning the exterior surface : Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dust and dirt after each workout or fight. For more stubborn stains, a little soapy water will do the trick. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
-
Leather care : If your shoes are made of leather, regularly apply a specific leather care product to preserve its suppleness and shine. A small amount is enough to moisturize the leather and prevent cracking.
-
Outsole : The patented non-slip sole of your RIVAT shoes is one of their major assets. Make sure to clean it regularly with a soft brush to remove residue that could affect its grip.
2. Proper Drying Techniques: Avoiding Damage
After each training session or fight, it is important to dry your shoes properly to avoid bad odors and deformation:
-
Ventilation : After use, remove the insoles and open the shoes well to allow air to circulate. Place them in a dry place at room temperature and avoid direct heat sources such as radiators or hair dryers, which can damage the materials.
-
Moisture absorption : To speed up the drying process, you can slip newspaper or silica gel packets inside the shoes. They will help absorb moisture without damaging the fabric or leather.
3. Extend the life of your shoes: essential tips
Here are some additional tips to ensure your RIVAT boxing shoes last as long as possible:
-
Shoe Rotation : If you train regularly, consider having two pairs of shoes to allow each pair to dry and rest properly between sessions. This reduces premature wear.
-
Storage : When not using your shoes, store them in a cool, dry place. Use shoe trees to maintain their shape, especially if they are made of leather.
-
Regular inspection : Check your shoes regularly for signs of wear or tear. Replace insoles if they show signs of fatigue, and don't hesitate to have your shoes repaired by a professional if necessary.

RIVAT boxing shoes are designed to deliver optimum performance and exceptional durability. By following these care tips, you will ensure that your shoes remain in excellent condition and continue to support you in every movement in the ring. Take care of your shoes, and they will take care of you.
