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 brush on my Birkenstocks

Great product

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

beyond expectations, works perfect on leather, bags, shoes, whatever. I used a natural hair brush so items are not harmed and it just looked amazing. The product makes stain be easy to be removed and for sure the product is easy to use

Works really well with any shoe !! Just need a little bit of foam and water and has your shoes like new !

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

Coming back a few months later after having an awful experience with this brush. I just want to give everyone a little heads up that this brand is a little over-hyped and that this brush, although advertised to not be the case, can actually damage your sneakers.I used this on my Adidas NMDs (prime weave or whatever the heck material they put into them now), and had read that I'd absolutely NEED the Jason Markk premium shoe cleaning brush or else my shoes would fray. Okay; I order it.I get the box, and confirm first and foremost it's the right brush since i've read on these reviews about getting sent the normal brush instead. it definitely is the soft brush. Nice.I use it on my NMDs following the instructions provided on the Jason Markk tutorial they have on the website. Soft circular motions, being careful not to dig the bristles into material.After wiping it down with the JASON MARKK (TM) PREMIUM UBER-HYPE MICROFIBER CLOTH, I look closer at my NMDs. The things are frayed BEYOND belief. My shoes looked like a sheep that was in dire need of a shearing, and I used Jason Markk products along the entire way, and even pay extra for this glorified soft bristle toothbrush.Me being angry, I send out a respectful email to Jason Markk; the just of that email was "Hey, you said your premium brush was made to not ruin knit material shoes... They ruined my knit material shoes, can I get a refund on the brush/compensation for my shoes?"No response. Even a "piss off' would've been nice.You're better off just buying a shoe bag for the washer machine and not buying into this garbage hype-beast shoe cleaning monster. You'll probably just end up as angry as I was, and still am, all these months later. The product works decently-well on shoes that aren't made of knit material, but this brush was advertised LITERALLY to not ruin more delicate materials and even mention NMDs by name in the product videos. You'll 100% have better results just throwing your shoes into a washer bag at the end of the day, and you'll save tons of money doing so.
