Your sneakers endure everything from daily commutes to intense workouts and weekend outings. Maintaining their appearance can feel like an ongoing challenge. We've been there, too! Traditional cleaning methods with soap and water have limitations, particularly when you need quick results. That's why we created SneakERASERS, an innovative alternative designed to eliminate dirt and scuffs instantly. But which approach truly delivers better results? Let's examine both methods to determine the optimal solution for keeping your kicks looking fresh.

Soap & Water: The Traditional Approach

Soap and water, the conventional way to clean your shoes for years, continues to be the most popular household method.

A mixture of 1-2 teaspoons of mild dish soap, warm water, and an old toothbrush or rag can typically remove visible surface dirt. This approach is great way to affordably clean your shoes, but it does come with its own setbacks.

• Messy and demands significant time investment: Requires a setup with water, soap, and tools, plus extra time for swiping and drying. You can't clean on-the-go, like with SneakERASERS.
• Can cause material wear: Using a brush or rag can gradually break down the fabric, rubber, or leather.
• Soaking issues: Water can seep into shoes, making them soggy and requiring drying time that varies based on material and conditions.
• Ineffective against black rubber marks and oil-based stains: While it can clean surface dirt, the standard cleaning approach often doesn't entirely remove stubborn scuff marks, especially on rubber soles.
• Water damage risk for suede and untreated leather: These materials are particularly susceptible to water damage, which can leave unsightly marks instead of a clean finish.
• While the basic water-based cleaning can work for deep cleaning fabric sneakers, it's not always practical for quick touch-ups or stubborn scuff marks on rubber soles. It also requires patience—15-20 minutes of active cleaning plus several hours of drying time. Plus, excessive pressure can wear down the material, causing premature damage.

So, How Does SneakERASERS Compare?

SneakERASERS was created to reduce cleaning time, and it only requires a little bit of water. Instead of dealing with a messy sink setup or waiting for shoes to dry, you simply swipe away dirt and scuffs with one of our shoe erasers in under 30 seconds.

No water, no harsh chemicals, and no complicated kits required. We developed this product because we faced the same frustrations you do with traditional shoe cleaning methods!
