I. STAGE 1: INITIAL DEHUMIDIFICATION (The Pre-Drying Rescue Phase) These New Balance® 555 walkers undergo a critical week-long pre-drying phase where they are exposed to a dedicated 50g of 150°C-activated Silica Gel per each sneaker : the essential step for actively extracting the excess moisture absorbed by the materials (PU/EVA/ACTEVA/ACTEVA LIGHT/ACTEVA ULTRA-LIGHT/ENCAP/C-CAP/ABZORB/ABZORB SBS/ABZORB DTS/N-ERGY/REVLITE) over the decades, stabilizing them before RH-maintenance stage. II. STAGE 2: OPTIMAL HUMIDITY MAINTENANCE METHOD (Maintenance Mode) Following the pre-drying phase, the aggressive initial desiccant is removed to prevent over-drying and brittleness. The sneakers are then stored in their original factory box (non-airtight) to allow the materials to achieve a stable RH level (40% – 60%) necessary for material flexibility and potential future wear. — PROTECTION LEVEL (BALANCE): This method prioritizes a balance between chemical preservation and physical flexibility, relying on the
