When I see the foam I'm in the zone!
Let’s see if shoe doc reacts to it 😂😂
I say that to my girl too.
No, when I see the zone I’m in the foam
I just saved myself a 150 bucks
Hahahah love it
Watch out! The sneaker cleaning industry is gunning for Elliot. We must protect him!!
Damn is big sneaker cleaner coming??👀
@@elliotpage_when you do that much damage you got to use the sneaker cleaners laundry kit but not all of brands have a kit, cleaning it alone won’t do the job
@@elliotpage_ nah shoe doc gonna foam you up brudda
Yeah
Protect this man at all cost
You just saved your self $150 bucks
i think it really would be an important test in suede but for this one definitely detergent
I’ve used the fz-150 and it’s cleaned very great everytime. I’m not sure how you cleaned but fz-150 works everytime and is basically a miracle solution.
8:20 u have to use the hard brush the white one and use need to dip it in water after u pump it also u need to rub is hard
I just had a seizure reading this
How dare you insult the glorious shoe doc. He let you save 150 bucks!
Start the SCRUBBING and give it that shoelada LOVING🤣
Philips sneaker cleaner is a really goodt thing to buy and just use detergent along with it. Soak it for a while in front load detergent before you start to scrub.
I restore and clean sneakers. Been doing it since 5 years and here's what I've learned:
- The Cleaner is not the key product, it's the brushes and rinsing, rinsing and even more rinsing:
I personally use 3 to 4 brushes. A soft one, a medium one and a stiff and brass bristled one for the soles. For tougher stains, a magic eraser works wonders. Rinse the shoe, once you're done with one brush. Once I'm done with the entire shoe, I rinse it under the shower, with a lot of pressure and squeeze out the water of the sock liner material 2-3 times. Washing machine is optional. Ps: I use castile soap (1 L on amazon = 12 bucks. Can use it for about 100 pairs)
- Different materials need different approaches of stain removal. F.e. if you have a canvas shoe, you need to do a ton of rinsing. Dirt can reaaaally sink deep down into the canvas material and needs to be lifted. If you don't want to rinse your shoe for about an hour, you can clean it normally, put it into the washing machine and wrap it in toilet paper afterwards. The leftover crud will rise up into the toilet paper.
This is just my approach of cleaning sneakers. You don't need to spend 20-50$ or more on cleaning supplies. Time and patience is key here. And I know it's a lot, I know hahaha. But that's just how I do things and my customers come back every time. Just wanted to to leave you guys with some advice here and it's up to you, if you wanna take it. :)
Like my comment so I can come back to this
What's your approach for cleaning suede shoes?
Fz150 is superior nothing is touching it
@@JaredEvans Brushing off the visible dirt first. Then more brushing with a brass bristle brush. Timberlands are easy to clean like that. A Suede eraser can work for tougher stains. If needed, you can clean them with some castile soap after that, but always shake off the water from the brush. Too much water can cause the suede to bleed. Once it is dry, get a medium or brass bristled brush and reset the nap of the suede. Done. :)
Some more tips: If you have access to a compressed air gun, you can blow off the dirt, after brushing the visible dirt off. And in some cases, you can use 600-800 grid sand paper for really tough stains and scratches.
I got a FZ150 kit as a gift not long ago, that stuff is magic. I use it on my fitted New Era hats as well, comes out great every damn time. FZ150 is legit.
You could use castille soap and get better results for 1/8 of the money
Yep , great on new era fittee
So you're in the zone?
@@papi-shoelostop the cap.
@@papi-shoeloif you’re broke just say so 😂😅🤣😂😅🤣
I have tried multiple and fz150 is the best so far especially if you follow directions
@PakiCrown bro fz150 would destroy soap don’t buy soap and save yourself 150 bucks
@PakiCrownnot really I tried many fz 150 is the best
This was kind of a pointless experiment because you didn’t exactly use the cleaners like they’re designed to be used. By leaving all the crap all over the sneakers when you start, you’re essentially just mashing it all back in. You should have started by (again) washing off all of the extra mud, chocolate, coffee, hot sauce… that way the cleaners are going what they’re designed to do… work on the surface level dirt and stains. The first thing these cleaners tell you to do is remove all the extra gunk and dry brush the shoe to remove everything but the stains before cleaning. All you did was point out that if you clean gunk WITH gunk, you’ll still always have gunk.
even if you do all that , the results would be kind of the same. Cuz detergent is also as good. Paying extra for shoe cleaner is not at all necessary.
Detergent will still win though😂
Exactly, the tool doesn’t matter
@@ryanlusanta5124 Would it though? I’ve watched those shoe cleaning vids by reshoevn8r and they can get those shoes looking brand new. All Elliot did was make them about 80% clean and call it a draw. I’m curious what the end result would have looked like for each had he cleaned them properly. That’s why I said this was a pointless experiment.
you are right but that point its irrelevant to this video, just use what you have guys.
Bro can’t even clean shoes right💀💀
That’s what am saying bro he was scrubing it like someone with parkynson
😂
Scrubbing like he has girly hands 💀
He was supposed to rinse it then scrub it off with the chemicals…. These kids have no idea wtf they doing
Elliot just saved himself 150 bucks!
15*
nice one@@dermagere
Meanwhile...... he spent 150$ on shoes, brushes and cleaner lol😅
@@KetchumShiney haha, elliot spend himself a hunnid and fifty bucks!
@@dermagere fr
You are supposed to rinse dirt and other stuff first and apply the cleaner after so cleaner can work on shoe surface rather then rubbing the dirt more into sneakers
God Our Father can do whatever he wants !❤😊 0:33
After being cleaned they're not stained, they are 'reimagined' according to Nike.
😂 facts
💀 real bro
🤣🤣🤣
Great video, the problem is that normal day to day sneakers get dirty not from those stuff, its those little dirts that stick to the shoe for months, and get in the sneaker, and that its super hard to get out, if u try to clean mud that has been on the shoe for 1hr its would be easier, maybe try with shoes u have really worn for couple months and went to party with or something that has creases, and see the real results! :)
That what I'm saying! We need another review with those hard stains that been on there for months! I can step in mud and clean that off like nothing
From my eyes I thought the reshoev8ner was the winner (by a pretty small margin) but it came with three brushes and the stains had the least amount of time to set in so it probably doesn't mean much if anything. I'd guess investing in a few brushes is the best way to go!
I was thinking that too
100% agree. Brushes will play a big role with what you’re trying to scrub and what surface/material you’re scrubbing.
Worst video results ever. If you use detergent on your sneakers they will be trashed. The detergent for clothes is not meant to be used so concentrated and brushed in plus the harsh chemicals will eventually dry out the leather that's why most good sneaker cleaners have a conditioner. As I've tried fz150 and reshoevanator the fz150 worked best leaving the most supple feeling material and best cleaning action . Unless your cleaning some chuck taylors canvas throw aways i wouldn't recommend detergent. Plus you followed none of the products recommended practices so a bit disingenuous on your part.
As someone who purchased Jason Markk, Reshoevn8r and Crep over the years, I can say that dish soap/detergent + baking soda is easily as good if not better than paying $$ for said products. When I was 10 years younger I was so scared of dishsoap "damaging" my precious sneakers so I went on buying expsnive cleaners when they are just condensed soap themselves.
People don't realize most sneakers (barring some suede ones) can just be tossed into washer with gentle cycle and won't get damaged.
dish soap is harsh, i used to use it when i was younger, its bad because it drys out leather and nubuck, it also causes the glue at midsole seams to turn a nasty yellow, jason mark and resh8ner dont do that.
Good to know
@@airtec87except most shoes barely have leather anymore. Most have very low quality leather and tons of plastic finishing on top. And all that nubuck is fake too.
Took your advice, threw my Louboutins in the washer. I'm pissed
@@InTheMindOfficial throwing a real leather sneaker into the washer won't ruin them after one wash. Nice try though.
Dude barely scrubbed any of the pairs lol
People might think you're cleaning it wrong (no shoetree, no wiping, etc.). The real test is to collab with Theshowlorios, VickAlmighty, Jason Markk. same shoes, 5 different people. make it a series/episode if you can't invite them.
Yeah honestly I was thinking the same thing. I mean obviously he isn’t going to put in 100% effort to take lots of time and really get into the small areas to clean the shoes, but I feel like because of that the results were skewed.
@@aadesignscustomsthe cleaning order also effected the results, if it really did take 10-20 min per shoe then the ones cleaned later had longer for the dirt to set in
That’s gonna earn damn views too.
Dude doesnt know how to wash shoes
detergent will do the same thing but over the time the rubber on or shoe will start to oxydise real quick because of the chemicals detergents.....whereas shoe cleaners are made without these chemicals that harm your shoe..!
I feel like you didn’t really clean them out a real sneaker head clean shoes to make sure they’re clean you just scrubbed them
Exactly what I was saying he should’ve scrubbed then rinsed twice
you just save myself a 18-35 bucks
I wouldn't trust this video because of how u use the products...u use the brush inside a container not only making difficult to brush the shoes properly but also u brush like 7 year old girl.
Fz150 fan boys are gonna be mad with this one
Lowkey kinda salt bruh 😮😅😂
Thanks for this video now I will definitely save myself 150$ bucks 😂 by cleaning them with detergent 👍😂
When you want your shoes to be fixed, FZ150 does the trick 😉
And when I see the foam, I’m in my zone
Wow I just saved myself 150 bucks
It is not only the products, it is important how you use them, of cousrse there are some tricks that the shoe cleaners know but you don't.
I’ve only used the reshoevenator and fz150 and the fz150 is the only cleaner that I think works on shoes and it is better then laundry detergent
fz150 is not that good
You just were in the zone bro
@@pranay4059How do you know?
@@pranay4059l zo
I don’t think he put enough effort to clean the shoes especially when came to detail he didn’t take out the shoes sole he didn’t scrub the inside of the shoe he didn’t have sneaker white to touch up the stitching lack of effort I say I’ve been having my shoes extra longer with foam zone
When I made a video saying Fz150 really doesn’t work the fanboys had a lot to say. I wonder if they’re going to do the same with you
Scrub the fz150 harder into the shoe and it will remove all stains
My best solution to clean sneakers that so far have worked for me all the time is: detergent with toothpaste. Mix both together and the results are insane
Just on white?
Fz150 makes your shoes smell like cheap detergent. I am not sure why they use a nasty fragrance on their cleaner.
You should do one of these but for Sneaker Prtotector Sprays
Dam you see the form I'm in my zone ain't no way you probably didn't scrub good
For fz150 he’s says if it’s like that bad then you have to rinse them off first and it might take a few washes ( with fz150) to make them look brand new
You should use 90% power on fz150 just like shou doc and then you're in the zone 👍
I'm so pleased no expensive sneakers were harmed in the making of this video.
I'm not, I wanted to see AF1s, Jordan 1 Carnage.
@@elmaster6207 same lol
You forgot to say that you just saved yourself a hundred fifty bucks
Moral of the story:
1.) Don't do a peppa pig with good shoes. (Don't play in the mud)
2.) Don't put Sriracha on your shoes.
3.) Don't put Prime energy drinks on your shoes.
Man I hate walking through the mall and trying to avoid those shoe cleaning dudes. Every one of them wearing panda dunks, got the nerve to yell to me across the mall “Yo Fire Red 4s, come over here and let me holla at you for a quick sec!” Boy I unDS’d these today you better let me be 😂😂😂
When they call out my shoe I say “That’s what these are? Cool and keep walking”
@@5lhorse476 oh I like that. That’s good
Lol they tried to get me when wearing my black cat 4s for the second time and they still look brand new. I said look at my shoes bro, I'm good ✌️
Toothpaste and baking soda is a good one. The grittiness helps breakdown a bit more dirt.
Ive been wanting to mix the F150 with the Resho8 cleaner and see what happens. I want the foam but the resho8 is the best Ive used so far
Looks like Elliot didn’t save himself $150 bucks!
Mira nomas que shoe-lada 😎
I've been using dawn dish soap, warm water and a medium brush for years and it does the trick just fine. So imo yeah sneaker cleaners aren't really a necessity unless you juat like nice packaging and brand recognition.
I literally have white shoes that are 10 plus years old (don’t wear them all that much) that look close to new. That I have washed with nothing more than dish soap, shampoo or whatever soap I have. And a good brush and drying towel. I think all these products are a scam… Waste of $20-$30. When you can buy a bottle of soap at the dollar store and do the same thing. Just get a good set of brushes. 🤷♂️
i can see genuine fun and passion in this video. this was really informative. keep it up!
Thank you for this video. This truly saved me $25 buuuuucks!
I’m guessing what the shoe cleaners really offer other than a good cleaning is also conditioning the materials for normal real life wear . Although this was an excellent video it was a bit on the extreme side and I don’t think people would normally get their shoes this dirty in one day lol .. great video bro keep up the great work
That was my first thought people do not get they shoes this freaking filthy.
@@rosalindgentry6633 not only that, he didn't brush off the excess. That is a must or else you are just mixing in the excess dirt back into the shoe
If it aint shoelada i dont want nada
You didn’t use the fz150 correct
I use straight hand soap liquid, soft-medium brush, melanine sponge (aka magic eraser) and micro fiber towel. After cleaning, my shoes look like brand new every time.
1. Rinse the shoe
2. Add some hand soap liquid with little water, just to make good foam, then use the brush and start scrubbing
3. Wipe all the dirty foam
4. Rinse the shoe
5. Use magic eraser for mid sole and upper to remove any left over dirt or stains
6. Rinse the shoe again
done.
The shoelaces, just the same: add some water with liquid soap in a cup, let the shoelaces in there for 1 - 2 min to soak, then with a lot of foam, was them by hand for 30 seconds, rinse and they're white, brand new.
Don't buy any "special" kits... you're paying only for the brand and for those bottles with liquid soap that may or not contain some chemicals to make your shoe look 5% better than using normal liquid soap.
Just buy 1 or 2 decent brushes and you're done.
Just to get this type of sneaker content from you says a lot. Keep up the great work!
Doc said rinse and repeat the process maybe your not following instructions
I had doubts that this might be a sponsored vid but glad he’s being honest…ive been cleaning my sneakers using toothpaste and decent brush for years now…it smells good and doesn’t ruin the shoe material…i can say that most shoe cleaning brands are scams
ngl, same. toothpaste actually does wonders.
Could be a ad for the detergent company 🤯😂💯
oh yeah... toothpaste is the best
Yo Elliot you need to clean better with FZ150 you used it wrong
Fz150 is a good general cleaner. Just like most others. Not a fan of the staged/ fake videos. Like the one where he insinuated a pair of orange lobsters were skated but they didn’t have a single scuff on them. Or the video where he cleaned a pair of sport blue 3s and the elephant print was completely different in the first and final shots. Don’t get me wrong, he’s great at marketing but I’m just not a fan of giving people false hope, like it’ll work miracles and get rid of actual scuffs
Ngl i think a lot of it is just repainting the shoes to look new
i think you just do it the first time in your entire life cleaning a shoes 😂😂😂
Damn, I really appreciate it bro you save me from the FZ150 I was thinking of buying. I kinda clean my shoes with shampoo/degreaser at home & tbh they don’t come out bad & I clean them pretty good. I wanted to try FZ150 due to the promotional videos but you saved me from it. Much appreciated 🙏🏼
are yall actually cleaning these shoes fr or wat ? fz150 is great ive had plenty resales on shoes
I have fz150 and it works great. You really need to scrub the shit out of shoes with stains as bad as these. In the case of this video, I’m positive (all) the shoes would have looked better with some more elbow grease. Dish soap or detergent will Forsure work, but I like supporting fz150. Also, it’s safe on all colors and materials. When I see the foam I’m in my zone
He didn’t clean the shoes right before applying FZ150. He didn’t pre wash the gunk like it says to do
@@daytripping So you say you tried FZ150 and pure curiosity how does it work when painting the white button of shoes?
He used all of these poorly only relying on the solution rather than getting that gunk off first so it straight up just mixed into the materials
Your supposed to throw them in the washer machine after you clean them.
this is an amazing segment elliot. it really shows your creativity with sneaker content. this content was truly a banger - hope you get 1M subs soon!
Ayy thank you so much!❤️🔥🙏
I watched those videos of shoe cleaning stuff, and I'm not convinced, using detergent is definitely good enough and safe toour kicks' materials. Been using detergent and toothbrush for decades. (Early 2000s).
Great job by the way. This is indeed an eye opener. Keep it up.
I do not…I repeat do not like the way you clean shoes🤦🏾♀️
Dont cap fz150 is the real deal what the hell u talking about
i never buy some cleaners, i have been using all white tooth paste and a tooth brush since middle school, i clean my shoes after each wear and wipe down with a cloth
bro, after every time u put them shits on?
u for real tho?
try shoelada the new fz150 shoe doc cut ties with fz150
He used Fz150 wrong he’s supposed to put it on the shoe not the brush
U were supposed to use a canvas type shoe like vans or a suede type shoe… when u dirty all leather shoes like that its super easy to clean even with dawn soap and water it comes off 😂🫵🏽
I wasent sure at first until you put on the white coat so thank you for that😊
Bro doesn’t know how to clean shoe with fz150 💀
POV when shoe dr sees the video: You weren’t in the zoneeeee
😅😅😅😅😅 you dont know how to clean a shoes?? Lazy lazy lazy
"When I still see the stain, I know I got scammed. I just wasted myself 50 bucks."
I just saved my self a 150$ bucks!
You should have also done shoe mgk. Thats what I use.
I just stole myself a $150 bucks
Why u just didn't get some real dirty shoes...
The problem with detergents is that they are not compatible with all materials, such as suede, which can be severely damaged!
Yeah Dawn is the way to go but after you rinse em your supposed to scrub em again with the soap then rinse em again
You don’t know how to use either of those cleaners
nah this video a scam, bro dont even know how to clean them properly 💀
fr he don't even know how to clean em right
I have order Fz-150 online 3 weeks ago and my first
Cleaning mission was on a pair of 312 Jordan's Low Legacy who were beyond dirty and they need some Fz -150 the foam and brush quality is so good that i didnt even remove the shoe Laces i just pump that Foam
I was defintly in tha Zone and the results absolute flawless i mean white and fckin shiny like straight out of the Box i just save myself 150 buks
Shoe doctor and his Magical Fz-150 are 100% THE most eficient sneakers cleaning product out there
"I just saved myself a 150 buucks"
Shoe doc be like “he…he just umm faked it yea yea he he just faked it"
Straight cutting fz150 sales with this video lol I’m in the zone
I just saved myself $150 buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucksssss!!!!
you didn't clean off the excess debris
If you dont see the foam your not in the zone 😔
Give them to the shoe dog and you will see . You would save your self a 150 bucks 😅😅😅
for suede the fz150 is good because i have university blue jordan 5s
Bro ngl you have to rinse the shoes before you clean them and FZ150 destroys any other shoe cleaner and the way you scrubbed the shoes was so gentle and you didn’t even use the FZ150 right you only need 4 pumps on the brush and you’re not supposed to use all the brushes you get from a shoe cleaner because I’ve used FZ150 on some Air Forces because they were all muddy and stained and I actually cleaned them right because I rinsed the shoe completely first then I actually used the solution and then you rinse the shoe again. Just saying you have to learn how to actually clean shoes
I just saved my self 150 bucks !!!!!
Mira no más que chulada😂
If it aint shoe lada i dont want nada
