How do I Clean my Converse Sneakers?Updated 18 hours ago

*DO NOT MACHINE WASH OR DRY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES*

 

TO CLEAN CANVAS, LEATHER/SYNTHETIC SNEAKERS:

First, remove any excess dirt before cleaning the outsole. Once removed, use a damp cloth and a mix of lukewarm water with a mild soap to gently rub the sneaker in the affected areas. When you’re satisfied with the results, air dry your shoes at room temperature.

 

TO CLEAN SUEDE SNEAKERS:

Due to the type of material suede consists of, we do not recommend using water in the cleaning process. Instead, remove excess dirt with a suede brush.

 

TO DRY SNEAKERS:

Regardless of which style of Converse you’re cleaning, we suggest allowing your sneakers to air dry at room temperature. Stuff cleaned shoes with paper to maintain the shape, occasionally changing the paper throughout the drying process. To prolong the life of your sneakers, do not apply direct heat.
