Boot cleaning top tip

[RegalRef]

I am a bit OCD about cleaning my boots it has to be said, however can be tricky at times.

I wear Kaiser 5's either moulded or stud and get annoyed with the difficulty of using shoe polish or dubbin and the white stripes and piping either look dull because the rest of them are very clean or they get bits of black on from the dubbin or shoe polish.

The answer is baby wipes.

Baby wipes on the white bits fetch off any shoe polish or dubbin residue and the dirt out as well.

Looking like brand new again

Nice one.

Now all you need do is tuck your shirt in and you'll be smart as a button.....

The answer is baby wipes.

This is the one tip I give everybody when cleaning boots. Unlike scrubbing brushes you don't end up with bits of mud flying everywhere, and neither do you scratch the leather or plastic.

Aha, but this tip only goes to prove that the shirt is a conscious choice, not a by-product of a poor attitude.

The conscious choice stems from a poor attitude?

Some may say!

But I certainly don't think so. I take my refereeing very seriously and like to think that comes through in both my attitude and performance.

So for leather part would you say use baby wipes then for bottom and in between studs brushes

Use the wipes all over. They're designed to clear lumps of sticky brown stuff anyway. so mud isn't that far removed

I still had to use my soft brush on bottom of my boot to clean them

Bang the boots together after the match to get rid of the clumps of mud then wear them for training on 3G on Monday evening. Clean and shiny, job done.
(Before you all start, there is a hint of humour in this and it isn't entirely true! I do go to the training though.)

What, the training isn't on 3G?

Ha ha, and my boots stay muddy for next week.

You must be an idiot to buy those!

Why o why?

As nice as they look...

Unless your a professional playing on billiard table pitches not only will they be a nightmare to clean, they'll weigh a tonne once they get wet and full of mud!

They look nice, comfortable, light and Australia is dry as so not much mud. But when it does get muddy, that once or twice a year...

And they get less waterlogged than my old ones!
