I'm hot, dusty, sticky and sweaty. Just got back from a long hike. I always wear these particular sneakers to go hiking in. Today I wore them with no socks. Yes, sometimes I prefer to wear my sneakers with no socks. Let my feet sweat & breath without being constricted. So you know what that means right? It means my sneakers are extra sweaty for you today. When I got home I started to clean them but then it dawned on me....that is YOUR job. I want these sneakers looking brand new. Just like the day I got them.
