Cleaning Products

Shoe cleaning products run the gamut from chemical-based shoe conditioners to physical brushes that remove dirt and debris from canvas. Consider shoe polish with automatic dispensers and a built-in sponge that distributes the polish in little dollops at a time. The sponge makes it simple to spread the polish in an even coat for that perfect shine. Keep in mind that leather shoes come in different shades, so stock popular colors such as black, brown and white. Brushes should have bristles that are stiff enough to remove dirt but don't harm the shoe.

Professional-Grade Cleaning

A hands-free electric shoe polisher can remove debris with a pre-cleaning brush, while a dispensing unit distributes polish. Then, a second nylon brush comes into play and spreads the polish in a nice, even coat. All of this happens with foot controls, and it costs less over the life of the machine versus paying for professional shines. This system works great for customers who are business professionals when they need to look sharp and want to add a glimmer to their shoes with very little effort.

Shoe Insoles

Shoe polish and shoe cleaning products take care of the outside of shoes, but shoe insoles help make the inside more comfortable by creating a layer of padding for customers who require a little more softness. Some insoles are relatively low-tech with just a simple foam pad. Others have odor fighters that reduce foot odors caused by sweat or moisture. Advanced insoles contain gel foam that conforms to customers' feet for the ultimate in contoured padding while providing support where people need it most. Shoe insoles work as [personal care products](Cleaning Supplies & Equipment | Personal Care) for people who need something extra for their footwear beyond factory-made shoes.

Shoe Horns and Shoe Removers

Shoe horns and boot jacks are handy items for people who have mobility issues and need some help putting on and taking off their footwear. Shoe horns are long objects, often 2 or 3 feet long, that help separate the heel of the shoe from the back of the foot. That helps customers insert their foot into the shoe without worrying about folding down the rear part of the shoe. Telescoping shoe horns fold up neatly for storage. Shoe removers double as boot jacks so customers can get a grip on the heels without bending down to remove their shoes by using their opposing foot as a brace while the curved grip of the shoe remover provides leverage to take off the footwear.

Shoe Laces

When it comes to back to school supplies, parents should consider an extra pair of shoe laces for their kiddos. Between PE classes and recess five days per week during the school year, plus adding in sports, summer play time and weekend activities, kids' shoes can go through some heavy-duty stuff. Extra pairs of shoe laces help extend the life of children's shoes, and they come into play for adults who can go through a lot of laces as well.
