KIWI Shoe Cleaner and Whitener: A Versatile Solution for Leather, Vinyl, Canvas, Nylon, and More - 2.4 Fl Oz Review

I got this from Amazon because I saw it on Tiktok. I have white vans that have been wrecked and people have used them to make them white again. I thought it would shine shoes. no it's like color. and it's dirty and ruined my shoes. Not to mention that after drying, the stains just oozed out. terrible. do not buy for this purpose.

This is probably user error as I may have misread the subscription but thought it was a cleaner but in fact it's just dye. I thought I'd give it a try anyway and it worked really well. I used it on white canvas vans and when I was done they looked practically brand new. I just covered everything and let it dry. I only put one star because I think unlike Purge, you can only do it so many times with the same pair before it gets funky.

I saw results immediately and my shoes looked brand new, but after drying they were crusty and hard and took away all flexibility from the shoe. the fabric on the shoes (I've used it on Vans and the Nike Air Max) to the point where they don't even match and are actually quite uncomfortable. I'm now trying unsuccessfully to remove the kiwi bleach because my shoes are mostly covered in white paint. You can get the same results as this product by using regular white paint.

I was a little disappointed because the color is actually not white, not quite white. I prefer white for my shoes. However, it worked and my shoes looked cleaner. Because the white color is different, the laces look different from the shoes now. I don't care right now, but I won't buy it again. There are some before and after photos from other buyers that I had to pay attention to. Also, it took a very long time, so I'm assuming it was imported.

I wish I could take before and after pictures of our daughter's white Vans. MARVELOUS! You look brand new! Works better than OxyClean, Dawn dish soap, or other cleaners we've tried on white sneakers. The only thing to note is that it acts like a shoe polish and not a shoe polish. And know permanently. That means once you get it in your driveway, it stays there like paint. Just like our daughter (insert a awkward smile emoji here). We'll definitely put newspapers underneath next time ;) Again…
