How Kim Chiu Keeps Her Sneakers Clean
Fully aware that white sneakers can be a little hard to maintain, Kim gives extra TLC to her precious pairs. She has three easy tips to keep your kicks in pristine white condition:
1. Store your shoes in a cool place.
Hot temperatures can make your shoes break, especially if they’re made of leather. To prevent this, place dehumidifiers in the room or do as Kim does—place vases of water in all corners of the room. Be sure to replace the water often!

2. Take your kicks to a shoe spa.
They need some deep cleansing, too! Doing so will keep your pairs in tip top shape. Kim’s go-to place is Repent MNL.
3. Stock up on shoe cleaners.
For easy spot cleaning and maintenance, Kim says you need to have shoe cleaners at the ready at all times. She loves Aldo‘s gel cleaner and Sneaker Cleaner, which she got from Foot Locker in New York.
