The Ultimate MISE Cleaning Guide

In the spirit of spring cleaning and getting the most mileage out of your MISE shoes, here’s a guide that will help you easily clean each of our 4 styles. All it takes is some soap, water, and 5 minutes!

The Standard & The Relaxed 

  • Spray the recycled leather shells with a mild soapy water solution and wipe clean with a soft cloth.
  • Stuff with towels or newspaper while cleaning and drying to maintain shape.
  • Clean outsoles with a soapy water solution and a hard-bristled brush to remove buildup from the lugs.
  • Remove insoles and soak in a cool soapy water solution, scrub with a soft-bristled brush, and air dry completely before re-inserting.

The All Day

  • Spray the sugarcane-based foam shells with a mild soapy water solution and wipe clean with a soft cloth.
  • Clean outsoles with a soapy water solution and a hard-bristled brush to remove buildup from the lugs.
  • Remove insoles and soak in a cool soapy water solution, scrub with a soft-bristled brush, and air dry completely before re-inserting.

The Chelsea

  • Clean the full-grain nubuck leather shells using a nubuck cleaner.
  • Stuff with towels or newspaper while cleaning and drying to retain shape.
  • Treat the nubuck leather with a waterproofer regularly to maintain water resistance and durability.
  • Clean outsoles with a soapy water solution and a hard-bristled brush to remove buildup from the lugs.
  • Remove insoles and soak in a cool soapy water solution, then scrub with a soft-bristled brush, and air dry completely before re-inserting.

To get even more out of your shoes between cleanings, we recommend Bundling up. You’ll save $20 and will have an extra set of insoles when spills happen. Don’t have a pair of MISE to clean yet? We can fix that.

Shop all MISE

Do not put your shoes, shells, or insoles in dishwashers, washing machines, or dryers. Excessive heat can cause shrinking, deformation, and damage to the materials. Always allow your MISE to air dry naturally for the best results.
