Cleaning and maintaining your sneakers regularly can help them to look their best and prolong their lifespan.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

  • Use a soft-bristled used toothbrush to remove dirt and stains from the surface of
    your sneakers. Be sure to clean the soles of your sneakers as well.
  • When cleaning your sneakers, avoid water, harsh chemicals, and detergents.
    Use mild liquid soap, hand wash, shower gel, or specialized sneaker cleaning
    products that are gentle on the materials.
  • After cleaning with cleaning products, gently remove the foam from the sneaker
    surface with a dry, clean cloth.
  • Allow them to air dry at room temperature.

DO:

  • When you’re not wearing your sneakers, store them in a cool, dry place away from
    direct sunlight.
  • Consider using shoe trees or stuffing them with tissue paper to help them maintain
    their shape.
  • First, make sure you buy the correct size for you.

DON’T:

  • Avoid water for cleaning sneakers because water can damage glue and stitching.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals or detergents for cleaning.
  • Avoid wearing sneakers on rainy days because rain or water can damage them.
  • Avoid dumping them in a corner or stacking them on top of each other, as this can
    cause the materials to deform.
  • Avoid drying them in direct sunlight or using heat sources such as a hair dryer, as
    this can cause the materials to warp or shrink.
  • Avoid using the washing machine to clean your sneakers.
