How to Clean Leather Tennis Shoes

One easy and inexpensive way to improving your wardrobe is to keep your clothing and shoes looking new. Quick n Brite is the best product on the market to remove clothing stains, but did you know it is even better to clean leather tennis shoes? Quick n Brite is all natural, with no harmful chemicals or fumes making it safe for your kids to help clean their shoes too! As a child I played soccer, basketball and baseball and friends always thought I got new shoes and cleats every year, our trick was to just use Quick n Brite to keep them looking that way. Now as an adult, my running shoes and gardening shoes often need a good cleaning. Whether your shoes are big or small, sports shoes or every day wearers, Quick n Brite is your answer. 

If you are going to do a deep cleaning of your leather tennis shoes, first thing you want to do is take out your shoe laces and put them in a cup of the Quick n Brite Heavy Solution (1TB Quick n Brite to 1 cup HOT Water) and let them soak for a minimum of 15 minutes. This step is especially important if you have white shoe laces, cleaning those first can make a huge difference!

Then, use a damp terry cloth towel and wipe off the majority of the dirt and build-up on your shoes. Next, using a damp sponge apply Quick n Brite paste full strength to your shoes and work the cleaner around in a short, circular motion.* (As with all cleaners, it is recommended to test a small area for colorfast and follow manufacturers specifications, and do not use Quick n Brite on raw leather or suede.)* Then using a dry terry cloth towel simply wipe your shoes dry. Quick n Brite will not dry out or crack your leather tennis shoes.

If you have opted to soak your shoe laces, after 15 minutes remove them from the cleaner and rinse with warm water, then lay flat to dry.
