Let’s break down exactly how to clean them—and how often you should.

Why Silicone Is the Perfect Kid-Friendly Material

• ✅ Odor-Resistant – Fewer stinky surprises!

With a material like this, daily messes are nothing to stress about.

Step-by-Step: How to Clean Silicone Garden Clogs

Here’s a simple method that takes less than 10 minutes:
1. Remove Any Attachments or Insoles
If your HEIGOO clogs have decorative charms, please remove them before washing. Since the HEIGOO clog sandals have removable insoles, please also remove them before washing.This ensures a thorough clean and protects the removable parts.
2. Rinse Off Loose Dirt
Use cold or lukewarm water to quickly rinse off mud, grass, or sand. A garden hose or bathroom shower head works great.
3. Use Mild Soap and a Soft Brush
Apply a small amount of mild dish soap or baby shampoo to a sponge or soft-bristled brush. Gently scrub inside and out. Focus on grooves, the toe area, and the heel where dirt builds up.
4. For Insoles: Wash Separately
Clog slippers with removable insole, clean them gently with soap and water. Rinse and air dry completely before reinserting.
5. Rinse Again and Shake Off Excess Water
After scrubbing, give the shoes a good rinse to remove any soap residue. Shake off any extra water.
6. Air Dry – No Heat Needed
Place the kids shoes in a well-ventilated area to air dry naturally. For best results, keep them out of direct sunlight or high heat to preserve their quality.

Bonus Tip: Dealing with Odor or Stains

If your child wore the clogs barefoot on a hot day, you might notice a slight smell. Here's what to do：

• 🌿 Deodorize with a mixture of baking soda and warm water. Let the shoes soak for 15 minutes, then rinse and dry.
  
• 🍋 Stubborn stains? Try a splash of lemon juice on a sponge—it's a gentle, natural bleach alternative.
