Millennials are turning into sneaker heads, spending upwards of R15,000 on a pair of limited edition Air Jordans or Yeezys'. And given the price tags, they need extra attention to keep them white or clean. Before you pack your statement kicks off for the monsoon, here are a few shoe laundries in the city that will clean them up for you.
Established by trained shoe experts, Futstep goes in deep to clean or dry launder shoes, inside out. They clean the laces and insoles separately, spray on shoe deodorant on the inner and far-reaching areas, as well as remove stains. They also press-paste outsoles, machine stitch tears, undertake minor touch-ups with professional shoe paint, and replace insoles and laces.
