I just bought these Coach tennis shoes and what kind of cleaner should I use to clean them?

Coach makes a leather cleaner and that is what I would use because it's from Coach and stuff.

How do you recognize better tennis shoes? Which qualities do you look for?

torsion - try holding the heel and twisting the toes this will tell you if your going to roll an ankle.


stitching along where the sole meets the leather - stitching lasts longer than just glue...

How do you recognize better tennis shoes? Which qualities do you look for?
usally you would look for a stable sole and good arch support. you also need very good ankle support,remember you get what you pay for.

Is it fashionable to wear tennis shoes with jeans?

It use to be several years ago. Is that back in fashion?

Is it fashionable to wear tennis shoes with jeans?
sure, why not :)





i don't like actual athletic shoes and all. but some simple sneakers are cute.





is just depends on what style/wash of jeans. for instance, skinny jeans + tennis shoes don't really look good together, most of the time.





personally, i just prefer flats and flip flops!
Reply:I like the way you phrase it....and i quote:"It USE to BE SEVERAL YEARS AGO..."Dont think its back in fashion...not my style anyways..especially not on girls...if it happens that a girl maybe cant afford nicer shoes,i know they are expensive,nice sandles will do just fine.
Reply:I wear tennis shoes with jeans all the time. But then again I dont care about things being fashionable
Reply:yes looks good
Reply:I don't think that'll ever go out of style. What else do you wear tennis shoes with?
Reply:yes
Reply:Yes it is! I wear jeans and tennis shoes without the laces.

Would you wear converse or tennis shoes?

I like tennis shoes myself, but I've never tried on a pair of converse. I've heard they're pretty comfortable. I wouldn't be against wearing them. :) My motto: wear whatever you feel good in. What's the point if you're not comfortable?

Is it best to store tennis shoes in their original boxes or leave them out of the boxes?

If they are made of leather it is best to store them in the cardboard box they came in or in nothing at all. Cardboard still breathes so it's okay, but plastic shoe organizers can store moisture which will cause mold on a natural material.

Is it better to wash tennis shoes in the washing machine or in the dishwasher?

What would be the best cycle to put them on?

Is it better to wash tennis shoes in the washing machine or in the dishwasher?
Dishwasher?? i think im going to try that
Reply:i jst wash them in the washer machine.. i've not heard of the dishwasher... hmmmm. But my mom did it %26amp; so have i. U may want to wash them w/ heavier clothes, rags things like that so they don't bounce around too mch. I usually use the gentle cycle. then i lay them in the sun to dry.
Reply:I usually do them in the washing machine, I hadn't thought about the dishwasher.





I usually put them on the 40c synthetics cycle
Reply:I would not put clothing in the dishwasher. I would think that shoes should not be washed in hot water. A dishwasher normally washes with 160+ degrees water. That's hot.





Also, a dishwasher is not designed for clothing, neither is dishsoap. Dishsoap is not the same as laundry soap. It wouldn't get clothes very clean. Dish soap gets dishes clean, but it is not designed to get clothes clean.





So, here's the best idea I've heard: take an old pillow case, put your shoes in it, and tie the end shut like a bread bag. Then, the shoes won't get ruined as much. Use the gentle cycle because shoes do get beat up in the washer.





I've never tried the pillowcase idea though.
Reply:Definitely the washing machine. Depending on what they're made of, you probably don't want to put them in the dryer, though. Put some shoe trees in them and leave them to dry on a windowsill or someplace with lots of sun and fresh air circulating.
Reply:I prefer the washing machine. Don't put in dryer. set them in from of the refrigerator and they Will dry overnight.
Reply:Wow I have never heard of using the dishwasher to wash shoes before...





I think the washing machine is best, but I prefer the good old handwash way.

Should I play basketball in tennis shoes?

What are the advantages/disadvantages?

Should I play basketball in tennis shoes?
It really is ok to play in tennis shoes if they have good support. thats really all that matters, becuase with good suporrt you avoid shin splints and flat feet which slow you down and are painful. but the disadvantage of tennis shoes is that they dont have the specialized grip for the court on the bottom such as basketball shoes do. another factor that you may like is the looks of the shoe. if your going for that,, basketball shoes such as jordans or T-macs or the kobes will be great and make sure ppl take a double look. but all that matters most is the support. you can also buy shoe inserts for that
Reply:be better than combat boots!





lol
Reply:no should wear basketball shoes because they are specialized for b-ball and tennis shoes are specialized for tennis so wear b -ball shoes
Reply:I recommend basketball shoes as well, mainly because tennis shoes don't give you the ankle support you need when you are playing basketball. One false step or cross- over and you can twist your ankle. And you don't want that to happen, do you?

How do I clean suede tennis shoes? Are there any household products that can be used?

suede leather should be cleaned with a fine brass brush. if you get a kit at a shoe store the kit should come with the brass brush, and nap brush and a cleaning stone. depend on what you're trying to clean off. if it dirt/mud use the brush. after clean the shoes spray with a suede/nubuck rain and stain protector. this may sound weird but also try a little scrubbing bubbles bathroom cleaner..it the same product as shoe cleaners.

Which brand is better for tennis shoes?

preferly between nike and adidas

Which brand is better for tennis shoes?
There are a lot of variables in choosing a proper shoe. Are you actually using these shoes to play tennis? If so, you might want to consider Wilsons because they have a better sole for playing on a tennis surface. However, if you just want athletic shoes to wear for everyday walking, etc., base your decision on your own foot. If you have a high arch, then Nike is probably better. Adidas are flatter so they are the better brand for flat footed folks like myself! If you're going to be putting lots of mileage on your shoes and doing a lot of competitive running, you might want to consider Brooks shoes. Though, again, these are tough on us flat-footed "soles." Go to an athletic shoe specialty store and don't be afraid to try on as many pairs as you like and walk around the store! Good luck!

What does it mean for tennis shoes to be thrown across power lines in front of road ways?

Most people have many misconceptions about this and don't really know what it means. So its about time this old G schools some of you young pups out there about the burbs. In the Barrio, a pair of colored Nikes would let a rival gang know that they are entering anothers turf. It was also a way for drug dealers to communicate by saying don't push your stuff on my users. Since then, you get young kids throwing up shoes of every style just because they are copying what they see. Gangs don't just throw them up at random to mark their territory like some damn road sign. They do so only after a confirmed sighting by someone they trust. Well the real gangs anyway, not the school yard cliques. This message tells the real gangs that if we catch you movin' in on our turf-- your going down! I could tell you a lot more about how things work, and how shot callers make decisions but that would be divulging more 411 than you need to know.

Why do kids throw old tennis shoes over the telephone wires on the street?

because they are ghetto and do not care about how their neighborhood looks.

Why do kids throw old tennis shoes over the telephone wires on the street?
In hood culture (as with any other culture) there are things people do to symbolize growth and development into the next stage of life. The shoes over the power lines represented multiple things depending on where you were. In Chicago some people throw the shoes of people who the victims of gang violence over the wire to symbolize them passing away and in Miami when a child outgrew their old sneakers they would toss those over the wire to let everyone know they grew up. A lot of the explanations of course would be urban legend and vary from hood to hood and person. If you wanna know what it means somewhere where you are find someone who is willing to let you know.
Reply:This ritual is yet another tradition, bastardized by ignorance.


Back in the day, throwing the shoes on the wires happened when:





1. When people with any type of major street cred died or moved.


2. When a rival gang member killed someone in your gang, they would use that as a message.





These days, people just do it out of ignorance. Basically, the Hip Hop culture needs to be carefully taught. There is so much rich culture to be learned.





That's how I feel

Reply:No, but I do wear footsies with them and only when I'm wearing shorts. I won't wear them without socks because it's hot here and I sweat, which makes for stinky shoes. I've never liked the appearance of socks with shorts...don't know why.
Reply:I always wear my tennis shoes without socks. I hate wearing socks, and it is more comfortable not to wear socks.
Reply:Yes I do. I do it mainly because I love how sneakers look worn with just bare ankle showing, and also with some sneakers it is comfortable.





I used to go without socks all the time. I hardly ever wore any in my teen and early-mid twenties. Actually there was a time I didn't own any.





Most of the time now I wear no show socks. I'm very picky with them though, they can't show at all. I've bought some that claim to be no show and still show like an inch out of the shoe.

Should I use my tennis shoes for running?

well, should i? why? =) thanks in advance!

Should I use my tennis shoes for running?
If they're comfortable, go ahead.





A lot depends on the surface you run on. Try to run on trails or grass, or failing that a rubber track. Concrete is the worst (harder than asphalt, for example).





Pay very careful attention to any symptoms you develop. Don't run through pain.
Reply:no, it doesnt have enough cushion for running
Reply:No absolutly not.


A tennis shoe is not a running shoe if you're going to take up running you should invest in a good pair of running shoes.


Running shoes provide the best protection for your feet, legs and body from the repeated stress of thousands of foot landings per mile. Each time you take a stride and land, your foot has to absorb two to three times your body weight. This repeated impact is different from other sports. Running shoes have built-in features that enable you to run day after day more comfortably and with less chance of over-use injury. Preferably bought in a shop that can guide you in buying the correct shoe for you. Depending on your running patern and your feet there are different kind of running shoes.
Reply:no thats bad for your feet use running shoes
Reply:Well tennis shoes are ok.. but they can somewhat mess up your shins depending on what surface you run on.


Your best bet is to get a inexpensive running shoe that good for jogging and running during free time.


If your going to be in races I would also get spikes.. because they are light weigh and help you grip the surface better.
Reply:you could but you should really go buy yourself a good pair of running shoes,,,you will be much better off with them,..they make them specific for running.....and they don't really cost much and lots of great styles to choose from ,.....
Reply:If your running consists of many miles a day of hard running maybe not depending on how well they are built. But if you are a casual runner/jogger I think it will be fine. Even though there are shoes designed for every conceivable activity I find basketball and tennis shoes offer the most comfort.

Why are schools banning tennis shoes with wheel in back?

Thats dumb. Let kids be kids.

Why are schools banning tennis shoes with wheel in back?
There are two reasons:





Safety of the students.





Cleaning the wheel marks can cause undo janitorial duties which presents a cost to the school district.
Reply:Kids keep hurting themselves...no one wants the liability.
Reply:I believe I saw somewhere that there has been a rash of injuries since those shoes came out. Not just typical bumps and bruises, but broken limbs, cracked heads, and even broken necks. It's not dumb, it's safe.
Reply:Plain %26amp; Simple - SAFETY!!! Supermarkets and retail stores are doing the same. In school for instance, if a child is not paying attention or another kid is horsing around near a staircase...guess what - down they go and it could be very serious. As a parent, who would you blame - honestly???
Reply:I just read the other day that a lot of kids are hurting themselves on them. I think it said in 2006 that close to 1200 kids got hurt on them and one died but it didnt give specifics.
Reply:it's because, if they allow it at school and a stupid kid trys a stunt and crashes. if they get hurt, like a broken bone, then the school can be held liable. that's the only reason i can think of.
Reply:Check the statistics! Do you have any idea how many kids have been hurt/killied by wearing these in unsafe places. I agree let kids be kids. I have 3. Relax there is a new alternative , removable wheels for tennis shoes. Besides school isn't the best place for skating .We send our kids to school to get an education and not in skating.They can learn that in their free time. Also the school can also be held responsible for any accidents that happen while a child is wearing them.
Reply:It's because it's considered a hazard, and some kids are not coordinated enough to use them and get hurt, there have been a couple of kids who broke their ankles and their parents tried to sue the company... the school is basically baning them for liability purposes if the kid was using them and fell on the sidewalk or whatever the school would be held responsible.
Reply:Do you have kids? Like the last person said, clean up costs and above all, it's a safety issue. It's the same as letting kids wear roller blades to school- kids are supposed to walk, and go to school to learn. It's not a skate park.

Which are the best tennis shoes?
1. Nike


2. Oasics


3. Puma





*I would recommend Nike because I've played Tennis and my tennis shoes were Nike. It's really good for running and moving around while you are trying to get to the ball.

Keds are good 4 Cute shoes
Reply:entirely depends on you and your foot. my mom swears by Ascics and Saucony. I love Brooks. My brother swears by Nike. Go to a running store. The best shoes I have ever bought came from a running store. They know foot mechanics and what shoe should fit you the best.





not all feet are created equal.
Reply:I love Pumas.
Reply:nike
Reply:I LOVE Pumas! I got a really cute pair for my birthday, mine are called Lab II and are light blue with a light pink puma sign. They are probably the most comfortable tennis shoes I've ever owned. I also like Nike for running and Tretorn if you just want cute preppy tennis shoes.
Reply:brand doesnt matter, it depends as to which brand at the moment produces the good shoes - and not because the name is popular. People have different feet soles shape and that too determines the type of shoe shape and material your feet needs. Although you dont need to go into much detail if youre not that serious about the game. Go head over the store, get those shoes that catches your eyes, try em on and see if your comfortable. Try walking with it and see if you feel good balance while wearing it. Oh, dont forget to wear socks :D

How do you wash tennis shoes in the washer?

I suggest you don't do it. No matter what you do, you risk ruining your shoes. When I was a kid, my mom tried washing my shoes in the washing machine and letting them air dry, and they shrunk so much where it was uncomfortable to wear. Plus, they don't hold their shape once you've washed them in the washer. It's best to clean your shoes by hand. Sof Sole Instant Cleaner is a great shoe cleaner. Its a spray on foam and the cap has a built in scrub brush, so you just scrub it to remove the excess dirt and gunk and wipe it off. It's easy and it works well.

How do you wash tennis shoes in the washer?
Put them in a pillow case and then wash some towels w/ them so the washer doesn't get out of balance.
Reply:Every pair of tennis shoes I've owned for the last 10 years have been machine washable. I had a pair of soft leather Reeboks one time that didn't wash well, but other than that one pair, I've never had a problem just throwing them in the washer with some light colored towels (if they are white) or jeans (for the darker shoes). I hang mine outside to dry, but if you can't do that, they will dry in a couple of days in the house.
Reply:I take the shoe laces out and wash them on a gentle cycle.
Reply:I just throw mine in with either the white clothes or towels depending on whether or not I*m using bleach. I don*t throw them in the dryer though in case they may shrink.


I just put them on top of the dryer for a few days and let them air dry. If you have safe back porch you could put them out there, I don*t because mine is open and I don*t want some stray dog carrying my shoes off.

You can buy specialist sneaker cleaners, but I find that toothpaste and a stiff brush works well. Makes then smell better too.

How can you airbrush tennis shoes with them cracking?

Yes, you should be able to airbrush them. I know that several places offer airbrushing on tennis shoes. I guess as long as you are't rough and don't wear the shoes everywhere all the time, the paint should last a long time on them. Just take care of them.





I imagine they spray something on it to "set" the paint so it "locks" onto the item you are spraying it on. Since I have no experience with this medium I am only guessing--I'm going on the idea of shirts being airbrushed--they last through the washes.

How can you airbrush tennis shoes with them cracking?
I've never air brushed, but I paint my tennis shoes with normal fabric paint and then heat set them with a hairdryer. They work out fine and wear out before the paint changes. Don't know if fabric paint will go through an airbrush.

What is the significance of the tennis shoes /basketball shoes thrown up to wrap around the telephone wires ?

When I was a kid (long time ago) on the last day of school we would take our old sneakers out of our gym lockers and throw them in the lines while walking home.

What is the significance of the tennis shoes /basketball shoes thrown up to wrap around the telephone wires ?
I have heard that this symbolizes a drug house near by- or territory of a gang.
Reply:I always was told it meant that drugs were sold in that area, if not directly below it.
Reply:For spanish speaking people means "I quit". We even have a figure of speech: Ex: He hung up his snickers. (Also gloves, as a boxer)
Reply:Over the years there have been many explanations for this, from gang activity to drug related beacons. Many of the more common explanations are listed in the link I will include at the bottom.





However, I also feel that it has over the years become different on a place by place basis. While nobody can claim for sure at this point, I can say without a doubt that kids these days have more reasons than those you will find on webpages.





In the urban districts of my city, for example, it has become common practice to hang the shoes of a deceased teenager following an ecstacy overdose following the increase of MDMA usage in Ontario over the last decade.
Reply:You know, I was wondering the same thing. Every time I go to visit my grandparents I pass through this little area of town and the fire department is out there getting a pair of shoes down with their ladder truck. I have always wondered that as well, I will have to check back to see what everyone else says...

Can you wear white tennis shoes before Memorial day?

You can wear white tennis shoes 12 months a year, 24/7 if you want.





There used to be a rule that you could only wear white shoes (regular shoes) between Memorial Day and Labor Day. However, the people who dictate fashion have come out with "winter white", and that seems to have changed things.





The old rules no longer apply. Wear white shoes whenever it pleases you.

Can you wear white tennis shoes before Memorial day?
Yes
Reply:yes - the old rule was women couldn't wear white (shoes, pants, etc) before Easter.
Reply:Just one. Or two but you must hop on one leg.
Reply:NO uh everyone know that duh
Reply:Heck yes :)))
Reply:sure just dont let the fashion police catch ya :)
Reply:Of course - the "no wearing white after Labor Day" is an old cliche' that was a "dressing rule" of the very wealthy. It was used as a way to separate them from the "lower classes". Eventually it became a non-issue. Wear white if and when you feel like it.
Reply:i do lol.

Can you wash leather tennis shoes in the washer?

They are black and my son's only pair ,so I'm scared to mess them up.

Can you wash leather tennis shoes in the washer?
YES YOU CAN! I do it all the time, its okay. Put them on gentle though so they wont crack! You can also put them in a pillow case to protect them. Just tie it up! Hope this helps, good luck! Be blessed!!!!!
Reply:No, I wouldn't wash leather tennis shoes in the washer. They're going to start cracking if you do.





Mild soap and water should clean them off nicely. After wards, polish them with a nice paste. Then buff them to a shine.





For the odor inside, spray a little Febreeze in them and let them dry before your son wears them. They'll be good as new!
Reply:Usually there is a tag on the shoes that let you know if you can. Otherwise, why not go the the manufacturer's website and see. Or send them an email and ask.
Reply:so can wash them by using a toothbrush and a common day soap mixed with a little bit of shampoo. Srcub the outside. For the inside , wash with bleach and let it dry under the sun for a day or so. Then wax the leather for that brand new shine

How come the Nike Tennis shoes don't have a first version like the Nike Vapor III and IVs or Air Max Breathes?

Also, are the air max breathe free II better or adidas barricade IVs

How come the Nike Tennis shoes don't have a first version like the Nike Vapor III and IVs or Air Max Breathes?
Heck, with the right marketing, Nike and Adidas could sell 30 year old designs with different colors and names and go for another 10 years.
Reply:They did. They just need to sell more so they make minor updates and change the number (I, II, III, etc.) IMHO, I liked the original models best!!
Reply:I'm not sure I understand the question, but Nike did have a first version of the Breathe Free's and of the Vapor, they just made new versions and thus stopped producing the older versions (except for the Breathe Free 2's, and they were kept on board because the Breathe 3's weren't selling as well because they were more narrow in the midfoot) They also have the Breathe Free Cage, which I find to be as great as the Breathe 2, but actually better because the opening for your foot to slide in is just a little bit larger. As far as the first Vapor shoe, it was maybe the best version out of the Vapor series (Maria Sharapova still wears them, but Nike isn't happy about it) you might be able to find them online. To answer your second question, I'd have to say that I like the Breathe Free's better than the Adidas. The Nike's are lighter, I think they are more comfortable and less stiff, but the Adidas are better on durability (which is why they are heavier and stiffer), and I also think that the Nike's look cooler (not that it matters to your tennis game) Good Luck!

What are the best tennis shoes for comfort, support, and shock protection?

I work retail so I am on my feet at least 8hrs a day and I also work out. I have tried several different types but my feet are in so much pain!!!!! I know there are a lot of new products out there but I don't want to buy something just because it is the "in thing" at the moment. But if it is a really great product, then I will pay good money. So any opinions or personal prefrences would be great:)

What are the best tennis shoes for comfort, support, and shock protection?
I know running shoes, so I'll speak to that. Most good running stores have guys and gals that know shock absorption and fit pretty well. I go to Dick Pond's. I have no idea where you live, of course.





Brooks Beast comes highly recommend from the big guys I know, my 6'3" 240# son included. No idea if they have women's sizes in that model. They probably wouldn't call a woman's shoe "Beast", but there is likely an equivalent.





Most brands have a 'high impact' model or two.
