ADVERTISING
As content creation is our business and how we earn our living you will see advertising in our content from time to time in different forms:
We are very selective about what brands we work with on paid/sponsored content creation and as a rule we don't work with any brand that we don't already or wouldn't spend our own money on. We are incredibly proud of all our brand partnership content and it will always be disclaimed in the most transparent way possible so you know exactly what is and 'AD'.
Because we don't work with a large amount of brands on sponsored content we do rely on our TH-cam ad revenue. Any adverts you watch during the duration of our videos will earn us a small percentage of 'ad revenue' from TH-cam and we really appreciate you watching the adverts in full (and not skipping them), but only if and when you can. We also know that time is precious so no pressure.
We also use 'Affiliate Links' in the description boxes below our videos and if you make a purchase via these links we will earn a small percentage of commission depending on the sale amount. Not all links are affiliate links but just assume they are
Any items/links marked with '[AD - Pr products]' are products which have been 'gifted' from the respective brands without a contract for sponsored content. This is still classed as a form of advertising because nothing is ever "free", brands are gaining exposure to our audience by us featuring them, so these items are marked as 'AD-Pr product' in the description box but we are under no obligation to feature these items. And as with our paid content, we never accept gifting/pr products from brands that we don't already or wouldn't spend our money on. If we have received a press discount on anything featured this will also be disclaimed.

I never clean my trainers but I’d literally watch anything you post 😂😍
So true lol
x2
Same .... they look So much better with some wear and tear, and, whether you wash them in a machine, a sink, or by hand, I think it ruins them
@@groofoot we’ll have to agree to disagree on that one 🙊
What a great idea for a series of videos. I appreciate your attention to helping items last longer
This was so informative, thank you! I’d been wondering how I was going to get my trainers looking good again. Excellent quality as always ❤
I'm an operations manager for a large volume resale company and we get some amazing shoes in terrible condition. I've equipped my shoe pricer with a cleaning /restoring kit and I'm adding a few things from your video. Great content!
Emma, this was perfect!! I’ve just bought a pair of trainers which were more “fancy” than my usual ones and I was literally just about to start trawling through google!!! Thank you!!! Loving all of your content, as usual ❤
I have been watching a fair few trainer cleaning videos lately after getting my Nike Air Max Dawns muddy. This was really thorough and informative and has made me rethink whether I need to bother with expensive cleaners like FZ150, Reshoevn8r etc,
Brilliant, Emma! Was just wondering the past few days how in the world to keep my trainers clean. ESP! Thanks for this 🙏🏼
This was perfect timing! I was about to look up one of your older videos where you spoke about protector spray! Thank you!
Hi Emma!
Wonderful way of showing ppl like me who are unaware of these products. Great initiative to increase the longevity of our shoes.
i got some of the cleaning supplies you mentioned so i am excited to start cleaning my shoes more regularly!! thank you so much!
Great video. I am building a new wardrobe following a four stone weight lost. I am shopping pre loved as I can not afford to replace every quality item in one go. Following your videos I am inspired as to what to look out for. I tend to wear very classic outfits which does help. I tend to wear mainly separates and do a lot of mix and match.
Congratulations on your weight loss 😊
You keep amazing me. Thank you for the tips. I love taking care of my stuff too. It brings me joy.
Hi Emma, although my trainers' collection is not as big as yours, I hate dirty in my footwear..I always forget to use protective spray...thank you for another amazing video..❤
That's the best video in this category so far that I have ever watched! Thank you! Definitely going to share it!
This video is amazing! I just watched the one about summer trainers deciding whether to get my first pair of New Balance's but being unsure about the suede. This showing how to properly maintain them is just what I needed. Once again, amazing content Emma! 🤍
I just used this spray to protect my daughter's new shoes. She's 8 and has the exact same version of the New Balance and Chuck Taylor's you use (but kids size) in the video. She feels super trendy now.
Wow that’s incredible when you put the water on your shoe!! 😮😊❤
Great tips and perfect timing for a reminder to re protect some items 👍🏻
Thank you! This is great! Such a useful well thought out video! You are brilliant!
Thank you for this! It has come at just the right time 👍🏼❤️
The colour of the green new balance trainers is to die for!!!! Amazing
Thank you so much Emma, I always use the protection Spray before wearing the shoes 😍
A very timely and useful video, Emma, thank you!
Omg thanks for sharing. I almost sent LV white sneakers to a professional as I had no clue on how to clean myself without ruining them
Amazing video, thank you so much. For cleaning shoes, can the same methods for the suede shoes be applied to sneakers with mesh?
Hi Emma. A very informative and practical video today and I’m definitely up for any advice to increase the longevity of items. I actually really dislike dirty shoes, including trainers so I do try and look after them.💖🌸
Same here. I know some people prefer the ‘worn’ look but not me, I like them crisp 🙌🏼
This is so helpful! I will definitely be taking your advice. Thanks. ❤
Heh heh, I do love the British vernacular .... here in the Colonies, most of us refer to them as 'Tennis shoes' ..... though some people say 'Sneakers' ..... but in the U.K. the term 'Trainers' is the go to term! 8-)
Such a practical video and well filmed, really enjoyed it!
This was great as my converse boots are muddy and need a good clean. Thanks Emma 😊
Thank you, very helpful.
I didn’t know how to clean them. 🥰
I also use protective spray on all my new leather and suede, or light-colored canvas, footwear. I also use it on my light- to medium-colored bags, whether leather, suede or “straw”, and my leather/suede jackets and other clothes. It keeps everything cleaner much longer. I use two light coats, allowing them each to dry. Of course, I renew it after cleaning the item. Most of my sneakers I toss in the wash eventually, leather trim or not. They come out great. I remove the insoles and laces first and put them in a delicates bag.
They might come out nice and clean but washing your trainers in a washing machine will lessen their life span which is why it’s not advised. Each to their own, not everyone has the time to hand wash their trainers but I just want to inform folks of the damage it’s doing x
That was so useful, Emma. Thank you. 👍🏽
The video I was looking forward to!! Thanks Emma!
I do it exactly the same quiet regularly. I‘m putting the laces into my washing machine by using a washing bag after letting it soak in Vanish. They do look brand new since years. I did replace a sneaker but never a lace. 😂 Something I learned from my shoemaker recently that there is white Sneaker colour to recolour leather trainers and it works really well.
I’d love to know which white recolour product your using as I’ve read reviews from all the well known ones and whilst some are good others say it just peels off after a couple of wears and goes patchy so it looks worse than before 🙈 I always look after my white trainers and clean them regularly so I wouldn’t need it for mine but Simon’s trainers are another story 🤣
@@EmmaHill Sure! I‘m using „Collonil - Sneaker White“ (I‘m in Germany). Reviews were pretty good and my shoemaker recommended it. I primarily use it for my husbands sneakers as well 😂 and very old ones of mine I can‘t get rid of. It‘s not really like usual shoe polish but quite liquidy. It can look a bit patchy at first but if you work it in with the sponge, let it dry and then polish it with a soft flannel it evens out very well. It works for me, even on my very old Stan Smith.
Great video, very useful, I’ve always struggled with taking care of my trainers properly and always put them in the washing machine 🙈
You aren’t alone, I used to do it in my 20’s until I realised what it was doing to them 🙈
This is super informative! Thank you Emma! I have a question regarding the shoes with combination of mesh and suede materials like a lot of New Balance shoes. While you covered to use suede brush to clean the suede part, how about the mesh/fabric part? Thank you!
Thank you Emma! Looks like I’m gonna have a trainers cleaning session today 🐳
My favourite kind of session 😜🙌🏼
Awesome video! So helpful! We need more content. Any probability towards a undergarment video or which self tanners you use with techniques!?
Wow, I was really expecting something way more complex hahaha this is so great, practical, and feasible, thanks a lot, Emma! Just a quick question: how often do you reapply the protector spray on suede trainers? Every couple of months?
It really depends on the amount of wear. So usually for me I do once a month for those on regular rotation 👍🏼
Thank you very much!! This is very helpful ❤
The first thing I do with dirty shoes is brush the gross dirt off, they have to be dry, mud will smear. Then I go over them with a gum artist’s eraser, the pink erasers can transfer their dye to the shoes. If that’s not enough, I go to progressively more vigorous cleaning methods, but just brushing makes a big difference. I step outside to do it.
So useful, thank you! Do you have experience with color refresh spray, for those flattened discolored areas especially on black suede shoes? Many thanks ❤
Yes I used to have some black suede reviver about 8 years ago but it’s difficult if you have black suede trainers with white soles because that spray will ruin the white areas. It’s technically only really for black suede shoes/boots which are all black. I did notice colour transference though which is why I stopped using it. There might be some newer products that have come out since then but in my opinion it’s too risky to try adding colour to shoes unless you know what you’re doing x
thank you for this helpful video !!!
Did you use any specific protectant for your veja campo shoes when they were new? Wondering if there is a particular protectant you used for veja campo fabric like that!
Emma have you ever tried cleaning them with Cif rather than the magic eraser? I always use it on mine before applying the protector spray and have always had brilliant results! Also thank you for your ever amazing content, I enjoy it so very much, top notch! A big hello to Simon as well 😌
I can’t stand the smell of Cif as it smell so ‘chemically’ 😆 so we never buy it but if it’s what you have and it works then that’s great 🙌🏼
@@EmmaHill in fairness it does! Do the magic eraser have a smell or not at all?
@@ieily not that I’ve ever noticed x
I always wondered why all your trainers look brand news... I know now. Thank you from BCN. First comment ever.
Now you know my not so secret secrets 😜😜
I loved Emma!
Great video and tips emma! ❤
Steam also cleans suede well, hold over steam then brush with a suede brush!
Very true, but it should be used with care as it can melt adhesive used on trainers which will lead to them needing more repairs/replacing sooner rather than later x
I can't get enough of your trainer cupboard ;-))
And thank you for this very useful video !
Yaaaassssss thaaank you!!!!!! 🙌🙌🙌
Great video! So useful thank you
Great information! Thank you! 💕💕
Thank you for that!
I wish you would have included other kinds of shoes to see how delicate the approche to other sueded shoes, as i just found myself Tod's blue suede slip on loafers at a second hand boutique.
I have a passion for trainers so this video was all about trainers as it’s what I gave the most of but the I use this technique for all shoes. So with a suede loafer I would use the suede brush and rubber, I never ‘clean’ suede in the way of getting it wet as it only ends in disaster. Then it’s all about that protector spray which is more important than anything else x
@@EmmaHill Thank you so much for this it is helpful ❤
Brilliant video, definitely getting some of that protector spray, my trainers are constantly grubby #countrylife
It’s an absolute must for all shoes & boots and bags too 🙌🏼
perfect timing! I just came back from vacation and my trainers are filthy.
Super helpful Emma; thank you! Another good product to use around the rubber edges and bottoms (soles) is 'The Pink Stuff Miracle Cleaning Paste', together with an old toothbrush!
You can easily wash laces in the washing machine with your other stuff
Yep you totally can but if they’re heavily soiled then it’s best to soak them in stain remover 👍🏼 A 30 degree wash with normal detergent wouldn’t remove stubborn stains, or at least hasn’t from my experience x
I've never cleaned my trainers as I don't mind them looking a bit grubby but I have a new white pair I haven't worn yet & I think I'll make an effort to keep these clean now I've seen this! What about the dreaded trainer smell tho, surely you have to machine wash for that? Thanks Emma x
I don’t get smelly trainers, Simon does though so we have trainer freshener spray which helps, and leaving them outside to ‘air out’ x
👍x
Huge difference on those Gucci pair. This was so good to see
This is such a good video 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Excellent. Please do one on keeping white clothes white.
Very informative and useful! 👍
Thank you so much!🧡🧡🧡
super helpful video!
Another great video Emma.
Gracias por los consejos 👍
So satisfying 😃❤
Thank you for this useful post Emma. I have been wondering how to clean my Converse trainers and usually just brush them. I will take your advice with the cleaner and water as the trainers need a better clean. I shall definitely use the protector in future. ✨😊
Hi Emma - thank you for this really informative video - great stuff!😀👍x
Take a picture of shoes and attached outside the box helps too.🥰
AMAZING VIDEO!
Thank you!!!!
Thank you ❤🙏
Amazing video thanks
Hi Emma, I’m unsure of which size to go for in New Balance trainers. I’m a UK4 EU37 but I’ve noticed 37 in these trainers comes up as 4.5 & 4 is 36. From experience which way would you advise me to go? Thank you🙏
I am a 40.5 and I size up to a 41 in all my NB’s, hope that helps x
@@EmmaHill it certainly does help & many thanks for taking the time to reply. Much appreciated.🙏💕
Now I'm checking every spot on each of my white sneakers 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤦♀️😁😉👍💪
thanks so much
Hi Emma can you do a video about blazer, coats or jacket care?
Very good Video!
I wish there was a way to get rid of the black marks on the laces from the eye holes.
Yeh they are annoying, I managed to fade the ones on Simon’s laces but not completely get rid of them 🙃
What about white canvas? Every time I try and clean them they turn yellow.
What are you cleaning them with?
@@EmmaHill I have tried baking soda and oxi clean
I refuse to wear tennis shoes when the rubber souls are dirty. 😚😏 My Magic Easers keeps falling apart. I might be using too much force. I will also start using gloves. 😉👍🏻 You we’re gentle. 👍🏻👍🏻 Thanks
What about cleaning inside if shoes are smelly? 😬
If you can take out your insoles as you can with most trainers these days then you can clean them with a brush as I did with the canvas trainers, then use a freshener spray. I don’t get smelly trainers, my feet just don’t sweat but I’m not much of a sweater in any respect, Simon’s trainers stink though so I always pop them outside to get some air and bought him some shoe freshener spray 👍🏼
@@EmmaHill thank u
Putting a fan on low is a safe way to speed up drying time.
First ❤
🙋🏼♀️👍😍🥰💐💐💐💐💐
"Non-coloured cloth"? 🤔
Yep a cloth that isn’t coloured like a bright yellow duster or blue, pink, green microfibre cloths.
In normal terms , WHITE.
@@colind7678 who ever wants to be ‘normal’? 😏
Thanks for that video Emma 🤍
I'm a freak when it comes to cleaning shoes 🙈
My grandfather used to say that shoes - whether they are clean says a lot about a person.
And there's something to it because you're the first TH-camr to talk about it at all. Most TH-cam girls say "sorry for dirty shoes but I wear them so I won't clean them for the video” 🤯
I've never heard of magic eraser and that's probably the only thing I miss xxx
I clean my shoes after every wear, aside from my dog walking trainers which were the 2 muddy ones I featured in this video (the Gucci trainers are Simon’s). Some people think it’s weird but I love fresh shoes 🙌🏼
Many people always strive to look polished but they never clean the trainers 🤦🏼♀️
That’s weird 🤷🏼♀️
