Keep Your Athletic Shoes Fresh Longer!

👟 Keep Your Athletic Shoes Fresh Longer!

Your shoes work hard — here’s how to keep them going strong (and smelling fresh) with some simple care tips.

  1. Remove the insoles and laces.
    Clean each part separately for a deeper clean and faster drying.
  2. Use a stiff bristle brush.
    Brush off dirt from the outsole, uppers, and insoles.
  3. Create a soak solution.
    Use warm water, a splash of laundry detergent, and a scoop of White Revive OxiClean (or baking soda).
  4. Scrub with a toothbrush.
    Work the cleaning mix into the shoes, then let them soak overnight.
  5. Machine wash gently.
    Place the shoes in a mesh laundry bag and wash on a gentle cycle with cold water.
  6. Air dry in the sun.
    Skip the dryer — let them breathe and sun-dry to avoid damage.
  7. Voilà! Good as new.
    Your shoes will look better, last longer, and smell fresher.

✨ Bonus Tip:

If your midsoles still have scuff marks or grime, spray them with Dawn Powerwash and scrub with a Magic Eraser — works like magic!
