The Science

Three formulas.
Water-based. Fluorine-free.

We make shoe care the way it should have been made all along — a water-based cleaner, a bleach-free whitener, and a PFAS-free protector. Safe on the materials you love. Safe in your home.

The Formulas

Three formulas.
One routine.

Each ShoesRx product is purpose-built for a single step of the routine — and engineered to work on the full range of modern footwear materials.

RX-01The Cleaner
Water-based · Non-flammable · pH-balanced

A water-based foaming cleanser that lifts dirt, oil, and everyday grime from leather, knit, mesh, and canvas — gentle enough for regular use, strong enough to actually work.

RX-02The Whitener
Bleach-free · Water-based · Mineral pigment

A bright mineral pigment system that restores white midsoles and uppers. No bleach. No peroxide. Just a clean, opaque finish that dries true white.

RX-03The Protector
Fluorine-free · Water-based · Breathable

A breathable silicone-based water and stain repellent. Mists on clear, dries invisible, and shields against rain, slush, and spills — without the PFAS chemistry the rest of the industry still hides behind.

What's Inside

Clean chemistry. No shortcuts.

100%
Water-based

Every formula is built on a water base — no harsh petroleum solvents, no chemical aftertaste.

0%
Fluorine-free

Zero PFAS. Zero PFOA. Zero fluorinated repellents. Anywhere in the line.

TSA
Travel-safe

Non-flammable, non-pressurized, and not regulated for ground or air transport. Toss it in the bag.

Full
Transparent

Every formula has documented chemistry on file. Nothing hidden, nothing borrowed from another category.

How To Use

Clean. Whiten.
Protect.

A three-step routine. Every couple of weeks on rotation pairs, less often on grails. Always spot-test on an inconspicuous area first.

  1. 01
    Clean

    Wet the brush, dose a small amount of Cleaner, and work in light circles. Lift the dirt into the foam, then wipe clean with a damp microfiber.

  2. 02
    Whiten

    On white midsoles or uppers, apply Whitener evenly with the sponge and let it air dry. The pigment rebuilds a true, opaque white as the water evaporates.

  3. 03
    Protect

    Once dry, mist Protector across the upper from 6–8 inches. Cures in about 30 minutes into an invisible, breathable barrier against water and stains.
