How to Clean Crocs

What You'll Need

• Soap-Man Vibes Multi-Surface Cleaner
• Warm water
• Soft sponge or cloth
• Magic eraser (for stubborn marks)
• Baking soda (for odors)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse off loose dirt

   Run your Crocs under warm water to wash away mud, sand, and surface grime.

2. 2

   Wash with soapy water

   Mix Vibes Multi-Surface Cleaner with warm water. Scrub the Crocs inside and out with a soft sponge. Clean inside each ventilation hole.

3. 3

   Remove stubborn marks

   Use a magic eraser on scuff marks and discoloration. The melamine foam works well on Croslite material without scratching.

4. 4

   Deodorize if needed

   Sprinkle baking soda inside the Crocs, let it sit for a few hours or overnight, then rinse out.

5. 5

   Air dry completely

   Set Crocs in a shaded area to dry. Avoid direct sunlight and heat, which cause Croslite to warp and shrink.

Pro Tips

• TIPCrocs are one of the easiest shoes to clean -- a regular quick wash after wearing keeps them looking new.
• TIPFor white Crocs that have yellowed, soak in a solution of water and oxygen bleach (OxiClean) for an hour.
• TIPThe dishwasher top rack works for Crocs in a pinch -- just use no heat dry and a cool setting.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• XLeaving Crocs in a hot car or in direct sun, which causes them to shrink permanently -- Croslite softens at around 120 degrees F.
• XUsing bleach on colored Crocs, which discolors and weakens the material.
• XIgnoring the interior, which accumulates sweat, bacteria, and odor quickly since Crocs are usually worn barefoot.
