Now that Spring is here, it’s time to swap those dark-coloured sneaker options for something a little brighter.

At Crep, we want to make that sneaker transition as clean as possible because we know this weather can get a little bit unpredictable at times, which means more unwanted dirt and stains on your favourite kicks.
But don’t fret! We’ve got all the tips to keep your sneakers protected and fresh during this pre-summer period.
1. Give Your Sneakers A Deep Clean Twice A Month

Events, gym days or a night out with friends and family, your sneakers go through it all. Gathering dust off outside pavements, random scuffs, and that unexpected stain - it can all be detrimental to your outfit drip. That’s why we recommend that you give your sneakers that extensive clean twice a month. Not only will this keep them looking box-fresh, but it will also increase the longevity of your sneakers, meaning you’ll spend less money replacing them over time.
If you’re looking for a starting point, Crep Protect Cure is the perfect option to keeping your sneakers looking box-fresh. Each kit includes a 100ml cleaning solution that effortlessly eliminates dirt and stains, a premium cleaning brush and a microfibre cloth.

2. Your Sneakers Need The Ultimate Storage Solution

We know how easy it is to leave your sneakers in an unkept pile, unknowingly exposed to the sun and other pollutants, and in fact, this is doing more harm than good to your sneakers. Exposure to slightly warmer temperatures can cause your kicks to discolour and crack, thus reducing their lifespan.
Also, the lack of upkeep and organisation of your sneakers, especially when piled on top of each other, can cause damage to the delicate materials on your sneakers' uppers. So, for the sake of your investments and room space, we’ve got you covered.
Our Crep Protect Crate range (2.0/3.0) is the only way to keep your collection neatly stored in style. Our Crate range ensures that your sneakers are protected against dust and UV light, as well as aiding sanitation. Plus, if you’re looking for something more swanky, the 3.0 version includes sound-activated lights with one plug-in connection powering up to 10 crates.

3. Brush & Treat Your Suede & Nubuck Sneakers Regularly

Treating suede & nubuck has always been a sticky situation. With the constant build of dust and hard-to-reach stains, we know that once you hit the outside streets in your new suede joints, it’s not going to be long until they need some well-needed TLC. That’s why we want to make these issues a thing of the past with our Suede Reviver.
With a simple spray, a quick 1 min interval and some gentle brushing, your suede and nubuck sneakers will not only look nourished and revitalised but will enhance their overall look and feel. Give them a small touch-up each week, and you’ll never have to worry about an awkward suede situation again.
But don’t take our word for it; try it out for yourself…
4. Use Protector Spray To Keep Your Sneakers Looking Fresh

April showers are upon us, which means that an extra rainy spell doesn’t do your sneakers any good. Wet conditions cause your sneakers to weaken and be exposed to mould and odours, and let’s be real, no one wants a whiff of your smelly, lifeless sneakers.
At Crep, we always say prevention is better than Cure. So before you step outside, grab a Crep Protect Spray and apply an even layer to your sneakers from a 20cm, let them sit for 10 mins and apply another layer if needed - then you’re good to go, with protection lasting up to 4 weeks.
