It’s nearly impossible to keep sneakers spotless in a city like Mumbai, the moment you step out, they collect dust, stains, and city wear. Whether it’s your everyday pair or a prized limited-edition drop, sneakers need more than occasional care to stay fresh.
At Bianca Cloth Spa, we understand that sneakers are more than just footwear they’re a statement of style and individuality. Regular cleaning not only preserves their look but also extends their life and comfort. While quick home cleans can handle the basics, achieving that true like-new finish requires professional precision.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to clean sneakers the right way and when to turn to our professional sneaker cleaning service in Mumbai for expert-level restoration and care.

Why Proper Sneaker Care Matters
Even the most refined sneakers can lose their edge without proper care. Over time, exposure to dust, pollution, and daily wear can dull their finish, create odour, and weaken the materials.
Thoughtful, consistent care keeps them looking and feeling as exceptional as the day you bought them.
Proper cleaning isn’t just about appearance, it’s about preservation. Regular care ensures your sneakers:
• Retain their original finish and structure
• Stay fresh, odour-free, and comfortable
• Age gracefully with minimal discolouration
• Last longer, especially those crafted from suede or leather
Luxury deserves longevity, and your sneakers are no exception.
Common Mistakes People Make While Cleaning Sneakers
A DIY cleaning session can do more harm than good if done incorrectly. Some of the most common mistakes include:
- Using harsh detergents or bleach that strip colour and texture
- Machine washing, which warps shape and weakens adhesives
- Over-scrubbing delicate materials like suede or mesh
- Drying under direct sunlight or heat, leading to yellowing and cracking
If your sneakers are crafted from luxury materials or are limited-edition pairs, professional cleaning is always the safer choice.
How to Clean Sneakers at Home (for Light Care)
Between professional treatments, a light home clean can help maintain freshness:
Step 1: Remove laces and insoles
Wash them separately using a mild detergent.
Step 2: Brush off surface dirt
Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dust.
Step 3: Create a gentle cleaning mix
Combine lukewarm water with a small amount of gentle cleanser.
Step 4: Spot-clean carefully
Use a microfiber cloth to clean the upper surface, focusing on light stains.
Step 5: Wipe and air dry
Remove excess moisture with a clean towel and air dry indoors — never in sunlight.
This routine keeps sneakers looking presentable between professional cleanings, without risking damage.
