Sneaker Cleaning at SM Megamall: Drop Your Pairs Off While You Shop

If your rotation lives between Ortigas offices and weekend mall runs, your sneakers are absorbing the full Metro Manila treatment: pavement dust, jeep diesel, flash-flood puddles on Julia Vargas. And if SM Megamall is already part of your week, the fix is a detour, not an errand — Wash 'n Wear's branch sits on the ground floor of Building A, and sneaker cleaning is one of the services the counter accepts every day.

Where exactly to find us inside Megamall

The branch is at the ground floor of SM Megamall Building A, along the EDSA corner Julia Vargas side of the mall in Wack-Wack, Mandaluyong. We follow mall hours: 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM on weekdays, and 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM on weekends. Drop the pairs off on the way in, do your shopping, and the intake is done before you've reached the department store.

What sneaker cleaning costs

  • Standard sneakers — leather, mesh, knit, or canvas uppers — ₱400 per pair.
  • Full-suede pairs (Sambas, Gazelles, suede Dunks and boots) — ₱600 per pair.
  • All-leather pairs — ₱700 per pair, including conditioning so the leather doesn't dry out.
  • White midsole restoration on its own — ₱200. This is the single most-requested job we get from sneaker owners.

Every pair is priced by material, not by brand — a beat-up pair of everyday runners and a grail pair of Jordan 4s cost the same to clean if the uppers are the same material. What changes with hype pairs is the handling: intake documentation is more detailed, and anything with delicate uppers (Salomons, On Clouds, knit runners) gets flagged for gentler treatment.

How the drop-off works

  1. Bring the pairs in their original box if you still have it — it protects the shoes in transit and makes the return handoff cleaner.
  2. Counter staff document the existing condition with you at intake: scuffs, fades, lining wear, and how oxidized the midsoles are. You both know exactly what came in.
  3. Cleaning is done by material — leather conditioned, mesh hand-brushed, knit gently scrubbed, suede brushed back to nap.
  4. Standard turnaround is three to five days. Pick up on your next Megamall run.

Why a laundry brand cleans sneakers well

Fair question. Sneaker cleaning is fabric care — the same discipline Wash 'n Wear has practiced since 1993, applied to mesh, suede, knit, and leather instead of wool and silk. The habits transfer: identify the material first, treat by material, control moisture and temperature, and never promise a result the fabric can't deliver. That's also why suede pairs cost more than mesh — they genuinely take more careful work.
