Shoe Laundry is an up-and-coming shoe care brand that's based in Toronto, which specializes in chemical-free and plant-based products that are made sustainably in Ontario.
The brand recently launched its flagship product, a Cleaning Kit that spotlights a high-quality reusable microfiber cloth, a bamboo brush that can be used on all fabric types, and a shoe cleaner spray that produces a ready-to-use foam that will not cause any discoloration.
Shoe Laundry also uses biodegradable packaging for its products, which are designed using 100 percent unbleached recycled paper material that require no adhesives. Once consumers have used up the products, the entire kit can be upcycled. Each Cleaning Kit can clean up to 50 pairs of shoes, and the products can be refilled at Toronto sneaker store Makeway.
