The satisfaction that brand new something already brings is multiplied by a hundred when it comes to white sneakers. The simple fact of unpacking them, putting them on and seeing them impeccable and spotless, without any type of stain, has something even magical. Well that may be big words, but the truth is that it is very cool.
Unfortunately that immaculate state does not last forever and it is even possible that you lose it the first day because of a friend who steps on you “for fun”. Over time, that nuclear white just out of the box gives way to a broken white that can even turn gray if we let it go.
But although the use is inevitable, there are some tricks to clean our shoes and make them look like they just came out of the shoe box. Here are some of our flagship products:
· Kit Shoescleaning
There are times when it is best to resort to specific products and cleaning shoes is sometimes the best. This kit, which includes a bristle brush and a specific cleaner for sneakers, is compatible with leather, suede, canvas and mesh.

· Kit Crep Cure
Another very good option in shoe cleaning kits is this one from Crep, for sale at Shoescleaning, which practically all of us who have bought shoes in their store will have seen for sure at some point. Includes a bristle brush, microfiber cloth and cleaner.
This cleaner is formulated with water, coconut extract and jojoba, so we can use it on both leather and canvas, suede and many other materials.
· White stone
White stone is a product that has been in our kitchens for many years, especially in that of our mothers and grandmothers, but for some time now it has experienced a boom due to its sale in Shoescleaning. It is used to clean all kinds of dirt including, of course, that of our shoes.
To use it we just have to take the sponge that comes with the boat, moisten it with water and take a little clay with it. Once this is done, we simply have to apply and rub on our shoes, rinse, and that’s it. Of course, this stone cannot be used on suede, for example.
· Magic sponges
The “magic sponges” are very famous in the general shoes cleaning of our house (for door frames, tiles, joints…), but they are also used to clean our slippers. In addition, its use is really easy: we just have to wet the sponge, wring out the excess water and clean our shoe. After rinsing off excess product.
· For suede sneakers
Although white sneakers are rarely made of suede, the truth is that there are some models that combine materials and may have details on it. If this is the case with your shoes, this sponge designed exclusively to clean suede or nubuck leather is the solution.
