Performance Shoes: To maintain the quality of your purchase of our shoes, we do not recommend machine washing. We suggest the following steps for any minor cleaning to our shoes:


1. Remove excess dirt from the upper and outsole by using a small brush or towel.


2. Create a soapy mixture by combining warm water and a small amount (a few drops) laundry detergent.


3. Dip the brush or cloth into the soapy mixture. Wipe down the affected area. Apply a small amount of clean, warm water with the brush or cloth and brush/wipe off the excess soap.


4. Allow shoes to air dry.


Machine Washable Shoes : any style with the "Machine Washable" icon shown on the product detail page can be safely machine washed with detergent on the gentle cycle and air-dried. We suggest placing them in a pillowcase or laundry bag before washing in machine. Do not place shoes in dryer. 


Nylon/Mesh Shoes: Apply a protectant such as Skechers Water Proofer Spray to protect the shoes from water and stains. For shoes with Skechers Memory Foam™ insoles, allow shoes and insoles to air dry for 10 to 12 hours to ensure the insoles are fully dry. DO NOT put nylon/mesh shoes in the washing machine or dryer. DO NOT immerse in water.


Smooth Leather Shoes: These shoes will require cleaning and care with shoe creams or polishes. Select a neutral shade or color nearest to the color of the shoes. Wipe the leather with a damp cloth to remove dust, and wait until dry to apply shoe polish/cream. Never polish wet shoes. Use a leather cleaning lotion or spray such as Skechers Athletic Cleanser to clean. Apply a leather lotion or oil periodically to keep the leather supple. Apply a protectant such as Skechers Water Proofer Spray to protect the shoes from water and stains before wearing in wet conditions. Do not machine wash leather shoes.


Scuff-Resistant Leather Shoes: Remove minor scuffs by rubbing them with your hand. The natural oils in your hand will restore the original look of the leather. For deeper scrapes and scuffs, use a soft and neutral polish. This process moisturizes and replenishes the natural oils in the leather, leaving a shiny coating that will prolong and sustain its wear. DO NOT put in the washing machine or dryer.


Suede or Nubuck Shoes: Brush dry suede/nubuck shoes with a soft brush or dry rubber sponge to remove any clinging dirt. Regular use of a soft brush will keep the nap of the suede free from dust. Stubborn stains should be removed with a commercial stain remover suitable for suede. DO NOT put in the washing machine or dryer. DO NOT immerse in water. Apply a protectant such as Skechers Water Proofer Spray to protect the shoes from water and stains before wearing in wet conditions. Use a suede/nubuck cleaning product to clean shoes. Brush with a suede brush for best results. 


Light-Up Shoes: Machine washing light-up shoes is not advised as it may damage the lights.  Clean with mild soap, warm water and a soft cloth.


Keeping Shoes Fresh: Apply a deodorizing spray such as Skechers Odor Eliminator Spray to keep shoes fresh and odor-free.
