Tips & Warnings
If you are cleaning rubber or patent leather shoes, you may only need a towelette dampened with water to clean them.
Shoes made of exotic materials may be more sensitive than leather or suede. Only clean a small portion of the stain at a time to prevent discoloration.
Always test out your cleaning products on a small and inconspicuous area of your shoe first to prevent discoloration.
Always use a clean cloth or clean brush when cleaning shoes.
