A great beginner set for newbies
Packaging: it comes in a standard square box. Just big enough to store the bottles and brushes. The brush with the hay colored bristles is the soft brush. The brush with the hard plastic bristles is the suede brush. Use the hay colored one to brush off dirt and debris from sneakers and other sturdier shoes. Use the suede brush on shoes that hade suede. It’s the soft velvety material.The instructions on how to use the set are on the back of the bag. It was fairly simple to use. First, use a wet wipe or cloth to clean the exterior. Remove your insoles and shoelaces. Brush clean the insoles. Don’t get them wet as some can take hours to dry. Shoelaces can be cleaned in a water and denture/braces tablet solution. Use dish soap if no tablet. Use soft bristle brush to clean exterior especially the hard bottom portion of the shoe.Second, apply the shoe cleaner. Get it foamy and leave for 10 mins. Take your shoelaces out of the tablet solution at this point. Hang up to dry. Scrub again using a bit of water and old toothbrush or the hard bristle portion of the suede brush.Only gripe: I just wished it had an applicator or something similar on the head of the bottle. The cleaner bottle just has an inner seal that you pop open. Liquid freely flows. I ended up using a makeup sponge to apply the cleaner to the surface of the shoe.Third, spritz the deodorizer to inside of shoe. Tilt the shoe from the heel to really help the spray get to toe of shoe. Let dry for 30 mins.Fourth: After drying the shoes completely (sunlight, dehumidifier, etc) then you’re ready to apply the protector. Spritz the shoe until surface is wet. This is much easier if your shoe is reflective like my work boots. I had to run my finger over the fabric of my running shoes. Leave to dry in shaded area for 24 hours.Fifth: Try out your new shoes. Note, if your shoes are scuffed it may not be possible to restore to original condition. The dirt may be too embedded to remove. You might have to soak, but I think the results are perfect for my needs. Please see the pictures provided for before and after.This product is what I needed to maintain my shoes. Working in a professional setting I get self conscious when my shoes show signs of wear. I will likely incorporate this into my end of month cleaning routine. It took me roughly 50 minutes altogether for five sets of shoes. 6 minutes each pair to remove insoles, laces, wipe down exterior, use cleaning solution, clean again, and spritz deodorizer. Took another 3 minutes each pair the day after to put back insoles, lace, and apply the protector.

Cleaned Puke Off Kyrie Flytrap 2 Shoes
One of our sons was on the campus bus recently and a guy sitting next to him just all of a sudden puked outta nowhere (a PKO, not RKO). Some of it landed squarely on his Kyrie Flytrap 2 sneakers. These weren't cheap shoes and he just stopped wearing them because of this incident. Enter this Large Shoe Cleaner Sneakers Kit.We followed the directions and, as you can see in the photo, the shoes look like new again. They are slightly yellow, but not because of the cleaner kit. He wore them to school one day when there was no chance of rain and it flooded. He said he wished we had this kit when he took the shoes out of the box because we could've applied the Water Repellent to protect them the day they got really wet.But they're clean now and he's wearing them again. So in that respect, this kit pays for itself. I like it!

A Mixed Bag
What I liked about the set is that contains generously sized bottles of cleaner, sneaker deodorizer and a waterproof protectant. There are 2 brushes included: a small silicone scrubber to get in the crevices (did a great job on the rubberized parts of my chuck taylors) and a bristled shoe brush. The instructions weren’t clear about whether or not one adds water to the cleaning solution (you do) but there’s not a way to spray this on the sneaker so I was forced to figure this out myself. I tried the product on the aforementioned chucks which are bright red canvas high tops and a pair of mesh walking shoes. Using the solution with a bit of water a nice foam form which you then scrub with the bristle brush and let dry blotting off any extra. The shoes def looked brighter and cleaner and the deodorizer freshens them up really well. They look revived! I’m sure our family will get some good use out of this product but if I can offer some suggestions here it would be to 1) provide a basic storage bag for the kit 2) provide some spray nozzles 3) include a brief instruction card. Not having a spray bottle was particularly frustrating.

Works great
Cleans very well. I was confused at first because the solution is so thin, however, you just need a little on the brush and some water and it lathers up quite nicely!!

Good shoe cleaning kit
This is a solid shoe cleaning kit. There a 2 different brushes for different types of material as well as a tool that helps get rid of scuffs on the sole. A couple of sprays goes far and can easily clean a couple of pairs of shoes. The cleaning cloth comes in handy too. I’d recommend this shoe cleaning kit!

Great shoe cleaning kit
The media could not be loaded. This kit really gets the job done. They’re also good sized bottles, they aren’t small. Comes with everything that you need to restore your shoes or get then clean.

Good kit
The products are mainly for cleaning, slight waterproofing and odour protection, but it lacks a moisturiser for nobuck and suede because they loose a bit of colour and texture with use.it's been handy so far! I have to clean the family's shoes and some just won't go in the washing machine. The scrub brush and the spray have been useful. The water repellant doesn't work all that great tho

Valuable set, worth the money
My girlfriend selected this set for me to take care about my dirty shoes, she said I look like a homeless person sometimes lol.I used to just wash my sneakers in a washing machine, but after a couple of washes they look really ugly.So I gave it a try and I was pretty satisfied. This little brush does the work and it removes the dirt from everywhere.The deodorizer smells ok, and the smell stays for quite some time. It is some herbal smell, not sure exactly what it is but it smells like forest in summer, nice and fresh - way better than smell of my dirty socks haha.All three bottles are large, so it will last for long time.The large brush has real horse hair, I liked it too.I used it on my Club Monaco and Nike Air sneakers, it did the job well in both cases.

A huge hit
I bought this as a gift, somewhat tinge-in-cheek, for a teenaged boy who liked expensive sneakers. It turned out be a big hit. Not only is he cleaning his own shoes, but offering to clean his parents shoes as well! Who knew?
