Care:Â
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:Â 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.

|section-left| My name is Jafar Mohmand and I was born in Ningarhar, Afghanistan. I grew up in a large and close-knit family, where I was called “Son of the Lion,” a symbol of strength and responsibility. I spent my childhood in Kabul, facing constant school changes and discrimination, but I also learned from people who left a mark on me, like my teacher Danish, who taught me that we are all equal. In 2019,
Â
I started studying medicine, but in 2021 the Taliban’s takeover of Kabul changed everything. Freedom disappeared in a single day, and my family had to flee.Â
Â
With Portugal’s support, we were able to escape and start a new life. Lisbon was our first shelter, but it was in FundĂŁo that I found peace, welcome, and a true home. The first months were hard, but the empathy of people helped me regain hope and inner strength.Â
Â
In the DiVERGE programme, I customised a pair of black and white sneakers. Black represents strength, resilience, and all the battles I’ve faced over the past years. White symbolises a new beginning, the peace I found in Fundão, and the hope for a new life. They are simple colours, but full of meaning, just like my story. If I could leave a message to the world, it would be this: Value freedom and be kind to those who flee. Behind every refugee is a human being full of dreams and courage.|section-left||section-right|
