How do I care for my KEEN shoes made from wool or canvas?

Wool Footwear Care
1) Brush - Lightly brush wool shoes with a soft-bristled brush or cloth to remove any dirt or dust on the surface.
2) Spot Clean - If they are really soiled, use a spot-removing foam, then brush them.
3) Hand Wash - If you need a deeper clean, you can handwash them with a mild wool detergent in cool water, soaking them, rinsing them, then allowing them to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Please do not put wool shoes in the washing machine.
4) Waterproof (as needed) – If you are wearing your wool shoes in damp or wet environments, you can apply a wool-safe water repellent spray.
5) Store - To help retain their shape, stuff them with newspaper or a clean towel.


For canvas, we recommend brushing the shoe with a damp sponge or soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt. Stains should be treated immediately with a gentle cleaner. Like wool, we do not recommend machine-washing.
