Stirrups

  • 1 Use a slightly damp hard-bristled brush to clean the floor (the area with the studs that hold the boot sole). This method effectively removes dirt and debris accumulated on the floor.
  • 2 Carefully wipe the other parts of the stirrups with a soft cloth and hot water to remove dust and dirt without damaging the surfaces.
  • 3 Let the stirrups air dry. This prevents any corrosion and ensures the longevity of the stirrups.
  • 4 Caution: use the hard-bristled brush only for the footbed to avoid damaging the other parts. Regular maintenance ensures the durability and proper functioning of your stirrups.

Helmets

  • 1 Use a soft cloth and clear water (warm if necessary) to clean the outside of the helmet. Never put the helmet in a washing machine or dryer!
  • 2 Let the helmet air dry at room temperature.
  • 3 Use a chamois cloth to gently wipe the carbon surfaces.
  • 4 Never use solvents such as white spirit, acetone, or trichloroethylene. These products can alter the helmet's characteristics and damage the outer shell as well as the interior.
  • 5 Avoid contact with corrosive or aggressive substances. Some paints may contain chemicals compromising the helmet's safety.
  • 6 Care for the chin strap with specific products for faux leather.
  • 7 The inner lining is removable and washable separately at a maximum of 30°C. Let it air dry, without using a dryer.

Footwear

  • 1 Use a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Never use a hard-bristled brush to clean the leather as it could scratch and damage it.
  • 2 Once the footwear is cleaned and dry, apply a nourishing cream, preferably waterproof, designed for leather. We recommend using FREEWAX cream, which hydrates and nourishes the leather, preventing cracks and prolonging the life of the footwear.
  • 3 After the nourishing cream has fully penetrated the leather, apply a thin layer of polish only if really necessary. Polish does not have nourishing properties, but it makes the footwear shine and protects it from moisture and dirt. We recommend using FREEJUMP polish, available in the FREEJUMP Leather Care Kit.
  • 4 For optimal durability of the footwear, regular use of the nourishing cream is essential, while the polish mainly helps to achieve a nice shine. Polish the footwear once or twice a week depending on use. It is not advisable to use polish too often to avoid damaging the leather.
  • 5 Regular maintenance with the FREEJUMP Leather Care Kit ensures the durability and shine of shoes and chaps.
