The Complete Sneaker Cleaning & Care Guide 2026

? TL;DR

Clean sneakers after every 3-5 wears using a soft brush and sneaker-specific cleaner - never throw them in the washing machine. Suede requires dry brushing only; leather can handle damp cleaning. Store with shoe trees to maintain shape. For white midsoles, use a magic eraser. Reps use comparable materials to retail, so the same care rules apply.
