It's hard to keep your shoes pristine without cleaning them regularly. As soon as these new sneakers come out of the box, you'll want to wear them outside—which they'll hold up against dirt, mud, scratches, and stains.

We recommend proper care and maintenance, including cleaning, to ensure your sneakers perform at peak performance over time. Before you begin, place your shoes in a shoe tree or stuff them with crumpled newspapers to help retain their shape while cleaning. Then get to work.

WHAT ABOUT USING A BRUSH?
Remove loose dirt from the outsole, midsole and uppers using a dry, soft-bristled shoe brush. No shoe brush? No problem, an old toothbrush works fine.

PREPARE CLEANING SOLUTION
Mix warm water with a small amount of mild laundry detergent or dish soap.

You can also make an effective cleaning paste for white and lighter colored shoes by mixing equal parts baking soda and water.

WASH SHOES ON YOUR HANDS
Remove the shoelaces and apply a small amount of mild cleaning solution to them. Massage the laces with your hands, rinse and then dry with a soft cloth.

WASH THE SOLES OF THE SHOES
Apply the mild solution to a soft-bristled brush, toothbrush, or wash cloth. Thoroughly clean the outsole and midsole, take time to clean every part of the soles. Dry with a soft cloth.

Note: If you need to wash your insoles, first remove them and clean them with your solution, giving them time to dry before putting them back in your shoes.

USE CLEANER FOR THE TOPS
Use the mild solution and a soft-bristled brush, toothbrush, or soft damp cloth to clean the tops. Take your time and don't rub too hard.

Once you're happy with the look, use a dry microfiber towel or soft cloth to remove as much soapy moisture and dirt as possible. Repeat if necessary. Avoid rubbing dry as it can abrade the shoe fabric or spread small remaining dirt particles.
