Sneaker Cleaner cleans with mild sugar surfactants and washing soda. It is based on Panama bark cleaner, an effective cleaning concentrate obtained from the bark of the soap bark tree. Quillaja is native to South America and its name is derived from the indigenous Mapuche word "küllay" for soap. "Saponaria" in the Latin name means "soap-like" and refers to the foam-forming properties of the bark. The saponins it contains are surfactants with strong cleansing properties and gently dissolve dirt and grease. At the same time, the extract has a dirt-repellent effect and refreshes colors. Essential oils of lemon, bergamot and silver fir give the Sneaker Cleaner a pleasant fragrance.

For sneaker care, we recommend regular cleaning, impregnation and refreshing as required. For thorough cleaning, first try to remove dirt particles using a cleaning brush or sneaker brush. Then use the sneaker cleaner: spread the cleaning foam over the shoe and sole edge. Brush the shoe in a circular motion with a moistened brush, wetting it regularly with foam and water to remove the dirt. Finally, clean the shoe with clear water and the brush, possibly even rinse if the material allows it, and dry well with a cloth or sponge. Once the shoes are dry again, they can be impregnated with Sneaker Protector to better protect them from new dirt. Tip: If your sneakers have laces, remove them first and wash them separately. Tapir's Sneaker Refresher is suitable for occasional freshening up.

Sneakers are extremely comfortable, lightweight and have even found their way into everyday business life. It's only when it comes to cleaning and care that we are admittedly sometimes at a loss, especially if the shoes are made of a mix of leather and textile fabric or are made entirely of textiles. Help comes from Tapir, the specialist for shoe and leather care. With cleaning foam, waterproofing spray and shoe deodorant, it offers all-round care that is gentle on the material. The care products are made from natural, mostly plant-based and vegan raw materials.
