Two years of city grime on the midsoles. One pass and they look like the pair I bought, not the pair I ruined.

pH 7.2No bleach or dyes
Three steps. Sixty seconds.
No water needed-
01
Pump
Two pumps of foam across the dirty area. Don't soak it — the formula does not need to be drowned.
-
02
Wait ten
It lifts the grime off the fibre so you're not grinding dirt back in. This is the part people skip.
-
03
Wipe
Dry cloth, paper towel, old t-shirt. Whatever's near. No rinse, no drying rack, no waiting.
Drag it yourself
One pass · unretouchedBefore — dirty white leather
After — same shoe, 60 seconds
What buyers actually say
Bought it for my kid's school shoes and now use it more than she does. No bucket, no drying overnight.
Sambas · suedeDidn't touch the crease marks, which they say up front. Dirt is gone though, and that's what I paid for.

Suede and nubuck: works, but blot — don't scrub. Patent and vinyl: fine. Anything we haven't tested, we say so.

Bleach yellows rubber. Magic erasers abrade the nap.
Numbers are our own timings on ten pairs, mid-dirty, no pre-soak. Wipes vary by brand — read the label of whatever you own.

Will it wreck suede?
No, but treat it gently: spray lightly, blot with a dry cloth, don't scrub in circles. Suede takes two light passes rather than one heavy one.
Does it fix yellowed soles?
Partly, and we'd rather say so than oversell. Surface yellowing from dirt comes up. Oxidised rubber that's been going yellow since 2014 is a chemical change — no spray reverses that.
Do I need water or a bucket?
No. Pump, wait ten seconds, wipe with anything dry. That's the whole point of the bottle.
How many cleans in one bottle?
Around 40 full pairs at two pumps per dirty area. Heavy canvas cleaning uses more; a quick midsole wipe uses almost nothing.
What's the refund actually like?
Email us a photo within 30 days, we refund the full order that day, and you keep the bottle. Return shipping on a $24 item costs more than the item.
