How should I clean my custom shoes or cleats?
Footwear from Stadium Custom Kicks is hand-painted and custom made, so proper care is important to keep your shoes or cleats looking their best.

To safely clean your custom footwear:

Clean gently with mild soap and water if needed.

Lightly wipe the surface—do not scrub aggressively, especially on painted areas.

Allow the shoes to air dry at room temperature.
