Playing baseball means getting your spikes grass-stained, dirty and muddy from running around the bags, sliding into home or creating a web-worthy play out in the field. It’s all a part of the game, and so is cleaning your cleats afterwards. It gets you locked in for your next game, so you’ll once again show the speed, traction and the ability to stand out.
Note: Never put your cleats into a washing machine or dryer. Never dry them by placing them next to a radiator/vent or using a hair dryer.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
When you’re learning how to clean baseball cleats, follow these steps:
Step 1
Hard surfaces like concrete and sidewalks damage cleats so remove them in the dugout. Then hit the cleats together to knock off excess dirt, grass and mud.
Step 2
Dry scrub your cleats with an old toothbrush. Second, apply a mixture of water and laundry detergent using a toothbrush to scrub away remaining dirt and stains.
