Weekly Refreshment: How to Clean Your Jack Rogers Sandals

in Uncategorized, weekly refreshment on 09/07/16

I’m in love with my Jack Rogers sandals. I got my first pair in college and they broke from fatigue. This is my second pair, and I’ve had them re-soled once.  However, as you can see, they have a nice patina to them from years of love and wear.

Since they are $118 sandals I can’t just throw them out and buy a new pair. Especially because Jacks take some time to wear-in and mold to your feet. But once they do, baby, they are the BEST sandals around.

Today’s DIY project will teach you how to clean your Jacks with only 3 tools!

What you need:

  • Saddle Soap (I got mine at CVS)
  • A clean toothbrush
  • Paper towel or rag

First, wet the soles with a damp paper towel or rag. Wet them just enough so they are damp, but not soaked. Rub some of the saddle soap on the problem areas with your finger, then scrub with the toothbrush until you get a nice lather going.

Repeat the process until you are happy with the result. I went back about 4-5 times and scrubbed. They don’t look like new (they never will because of the way leather wears) but they definitely look better.

I highly recommend doing this whole process over a sink or put down some newspaper.

Be careful with the heels, as the leather pieces may fall off. I recommend using a tweezer or q-tip to thoroughly clean the heels. If the heel pads do fall off, just use some crazy glue to stick them back on. I’ve done it before and it works really well.

I will probably keep scrubbing until they get a little bit cleaner. But you get the picture.

      I’m glad you find it useful! I just couldn’t bring myself to buy another pair when these are so loved. I’m sure you can relate!

    Looking good! It’s also good the environment to fix, clean, etc. an old pair of shoes (or anything for that matter!) rather than toss ’em as soon as they have an issue and buy new ones. I recently took my luggage to a shoe/luggage repair because a crucial seam in the bag was ripping… They added a strip of leather into the seam for added strength and my luggage is going strong 5+ years!

      Thanks, Moriah! It is definitely an investment to fix something rather than to keep buying inexpensive versions over and over. But I think it is worth it, too!

It’s a bleak reality that drowning remains the number one cause of unintentional injury-related death among children ages 1 to 4, taking the lives of three children in the United States every day. Learning to swim and practicing water safety at a young age is essential to preventing drowning. In fact, studies show that enrolling a child in swim lessons can reduce their chance of drowning by up to 88%! 

Come visit @goldfish_northbrook on Saturday *May 13* to take part in their Water Safety celebration! Participate in family swim, win raffle items, get a safer swimmer goodie bag, and learn the best ways to keep your family safe in and around the water this summer!
