My shoe care regimen has evolved to this over the years:
- A dry terry cloth towel to get most of the dust
- A dry microfiber cloth to get into the seams and laces
- Murphy's Oil Soap or saddle soap + water in a spray bottle for general cleaning
- Scrub with a soft toothbrush when I want them clean down to bare leather
- Kiwi black polish and a horsehair brush
- Liquid polish for sole edge touchups
- Silicone impregnated shine sponge for a quick buff
Clean before or after each game; polish as needed.
