Jason Markk Shoe & Sneaker Care, Shoe Cleaner, Cleans & Conditions Footwear

The Gold Standard for Sneaker Cleaning – Effective, Gentle, and Built to ImpressI’ve been using the Jason Markk Shoe & Sneaker Cleaner with Brush for about a year now, and I’m already on my second bottle. That alone should say something. When it comes to keeping your sneakers looking sharp—whether it’s leather, mesh, suede, or canvas—this is hands down the best cleaner I’ve ever used.I first bought it after hearing great things from a few sneaker forums and YouTube reviews. I figured I’d give it a try on a beat-up pair of white Nike Air Force 1s that I almost gave up on. After one cleaning session with Jason Markk, they looked good enough to wear again. That got my attention.Since then, I’ve used it on everything: Jordans, Yeezys, running shoes, Vans, casual leather boots, even my daughter’s canvas slip-ons. Every time, it brings the material back to life without damaging it or leaving behind residue. It doesn’t just push the dirt around—it actually lifts it off the surface. The results are clean, not overprocessed. It’s especially satisfying on mesh or knit shoes that tend to hold onto grime.The cleaning solution itself is super concentrated, so a little goes a long way. A few drops in a small bowl of water is usually more than enough to get through a whole pair of shoes. That’s probably why my first bottle lasted as long as it did. And it smells good—clean and light, not like harsh chemicals or fake fragrance. It makes the cleaning process feel more like a proper routine than a chore.The included brush is solid too. The bristles are firm but not too stiff. It’s great for rubber soles and durable uppers. For more delicate materials like suede or knit, I just swap in a softer brush I already had, but Jason Markk also sells premium brushes separately if you want a full setup. That said, for most general sneaker cleaning, the included brush does the job just fine.After a year of regular use, this cleaner has earned a permanent spot in my shoe care routine. I’ve restored shoes that were borderline throwaway condition, kept my daily beaters looking fresh, and extended the life of shoes I probably would’ve retired early. Even when I travel, I bring a small bottle with me in a kit just in case.Pros:• Highly effective on a wide range of materials• A little goes a long way (very concentrated)• Smells clean, not harsh or chemical• Included brush is great for general use• Safe for delicate materials when used properly• Reliable results every timeCons:• The brush may be a little too firm for very delicate materials (but easy to swap out)• You might get addicted to cleaning your shoes more often than you expectedFinal Thoughts:If you care about your shoes—and I mean really care—then the Jason Markk Cleaner with Brush is a no-brainer. It works better than any generic cleaner I’ve tried, and it’s gentle enough to use often without worrying about damaging the material. I’ve kept shoes looking fresh for an extra season or more because of this stuff, and after owning two bottles over the last year, I can say it’s well worth every penny. Whether you’re a serious sneakerhead or just want to get more life out of your everyday kicks, this kit delivers. Highly recommended.

Great cleaner

I have an old Chanel fabric tote that was badly abused by my sister. I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars sending it out to be cleaned, so I figured what the heck let's give this stuff a try. I did a test spot on the back of the bag and you can see in the pix how much better it already looks! This is with one application and since the bag is textured I believe it will take a few go rounds to get all the dirt and stains out. But, boy am I pleased so far! The included brush is soft so I see no damage where I already cleaned the bag. Will follow up when I finish cleaning the bag.

This works pretty well on suede and nubuck. It will lift dirt but not deep-set stains, particularly on white sneakers.

Worked so well on my Adidas Campus 00s. I had a ton of stains from a frat party, but the foam took off all dirt and I could apply it directly to the suede without it getting messed up!

It’s my go to product for shoe cleaning. This is my 2 bottle. Love it.

We needed a brush to clean all of our suede shoes, and we are very pleased we purchased this one. The bristles are soft enough to prevent damaging the leather while firm enough to do a good job of cleaning. The handle is easy to hold, prevents slipping, and is comfortable in the hand.

Literally on the first brush of the my shoes bristles fell out. But, it should last a while.
