🧽 Step-by-Step: Cleaning the Off-White Chicago 1s

These grails are made from a delicate mix of suede, mesh, and leather, so proper care is critical to preserve their value and structure.

1️⃣ Start With the Suede – Dry Clean Only

We began by using the ReviveKicks Shoe Eraser to gently dry clean the suede on the uppers. This lifts surface dirt and oils without darkening or damaging the nap. We followed with the Soft Bristle Brush to gently dust off the debris.

2️⃣ Deep Clean the Midsoles

Next, we applied ReviveKicks Shoe Cleaner with the Soft Bristle Brush, scrubbing the midsoles to lift built-up grime. We were careful not to splash the cleaner up onto the suede or leather. Once clean, we wiped everything down with a Microfiber Towel to prevent residue buildup.

3️⃣ Mesh Cleaning – Gentle & Controlled

Moving to the mesh portions, we used a soft, circular motion with the Soft Bristle Brush, keeping the surface lightly damp to avoid fraying. After scrubbing, we immediately dried the area with a microfiber towel to remove stains and prevent water spots.

4️⃣ Leather Spot Cleaning – Avoid Bleeding

For the red leather sections, we cleaned with a controlled amount of Shoe Cleaner using the soft brush, taking special care not to spread red dye onto the adjacent materials. This specific colorway is known for color bleed — so precision was key.

5️⃣ Stitch Detailing & Final Finish

We attempted to detail out red bleeding around the stitching near the heel, which appeared to be caused either from the factory or past improper cleaning. Once fully dry, we conditioned the leather uppers with Angelus Leather Conditioner, restoring softness and protection.
