On today’s Instagram post, we shared a true test of speed, skill, and sanitation. A client brought in a pair of On Cloud sneakers completely covered in throw-up after a rough night — and needed them back fast.
Thanks to our expedited sneaker cleaning service, we turned them around in just a few hours and made them look (and smell) brand new.

🧼 Step-by-Step: Deep Cleaning Biohazard-Damaged Sneakers
1️⃣ Initial Breakdown & Uppers Prep
We started by scrubbing the entire upper with our Revive Kicks Soft Bristle Brush and Shoe Cleaner, gently loosening up the biohazardous material without spreading it further.
2️⃣ Steam Extraction for Sanitation
We then used a professional steamer to extract and lift all the residue from the upper, removing visible stains and breaking down contaminants safely.
3️⃣ Second Wash + Power Tools
To go even deeper, we applied a second coat of ReviveKicks Shoe Cleaner, then followed up with a drill brush attachment for a more aggressive scrub and a mesh scrub to clean beneath the fabric layers.
4️⃣ Targeted Spot Detailing
Using our spot cleaning gun, we flushed dirt and bacteria from inside the material, then followed up again with the steamer to fully rinse everything through.
5️⃣ Final Flush & Sanitize
We finished with our air compressor to push out remaining residue from the fabric lining. After that, we applied deodorizer and disinfectant spray, and placed the shoes in our UV drying box — speeding up the drying process while eliminating odors and bacteria.
✅ End result? Good as new — cleaned, sanitized, and ready to wear.
💡 Why This Matters
Accidents happen. But when they do, your sneakers deserve expert care, especially when dealing with biohazard material. Attempting to clean something like this at home can result in permanent odor, deeper staining, or fabric damage.
Whether it’s vomit, spills, or serious grime — Revive Kicks has the tools and expertise to handle it.
