It is recommended to spray all Skechers shoes with our Rain and Stain Waterproof Spray prior to wearing. Give your shoes a thorough spray and leave to dry away from direct sunlight. A second coat is also recommended.
To keep your shoes fresh and deodorized, we suggest using our Shoe Care Odor Eliminator Spray. It is specially formulated to keep Skechers shoes feeling and smelling fresh.
Brighten and clean your shoes to look like new with our Shoe Care Athletic Cleanser Gel, specially formulated to brighten and clean leather, suede or fabric footwear. This is a perfect shoe conditioner for removing surface stains.
Please see a break down of styles and recommended treatment below:
Performance Shoes: Most Skechers GOwalk and GOrun shoes with non-leather uppers can be cleaned by using our Skechers Athletic Cleanser gel and a soft cloth. We do not recommend fully submerging your item in water or through the washing machine as this can compromise the material and stitching of the shoe.
Air dry away from harsh conditions or direct sunlight for up to 12 hours to ensure your item is fully dry, do not place shoes in the dryer. Apply a fabric 'rain and stain' protectant to protect the shoes from stains.
Nylon/Mesh Shoes: Most casual shoes can be cleaned using our Skechers Athletic Cleanser gel and a soft cloth. We don't recommend fully submerging your item in water or through the washing machine as this can compromise the material and stitching of the shoe.
Air dry away from harsh conditions or direct sunlight for up to 12 hours to ensure your item is fully dry, do not place shoes in the dryer. Apply a fabric 'rain and stain' protectant to protect the shoes from stains.
Skechers Memory Foam™ Insoles: For shoes with these amazing insoles, we recommend removing the insole from your shoes (yep that’s right, they’re removable) at least once every couple of months to allow this amazing technology to “puff” back to its original shape.
This will allow your insole to breathe and assist with the longevity of your item. If you opt to clean your insoles, please be sure to let them air dry away from harsh conditions or direct sunlight for 10 to 12 hours to ensure the insoles are fully dry before placing them back in your pair. We would recommend using our Shoe Care Odor Eliminator Spray to finish.
Leather Shoes: Apply leather 'rain and stain' protectant before wearing. Use a leather cleaning lotion or spray to clean, our Skechers Athletic Cleanser gel would be ideal. Apply a leather lotion or oil periodically to keep the leather supple. Do not machine wash leather shoes.
Suede or Nubuck Shoes: Apply a suede and nubuck-specific 'rain and stain' protectant before wearing in wet conditions. Use a suede/nubuck cleaning product to clean shoes. Brush with a suede brush for best results. Do not machine wash suede or nubuck shoes.
Light-Up Shoes: Washing light-up shoes, in any capacity, is not advised as this will damage the lights irreparably.
