Boot Black Trainer Line By Arterton Review
If you are a big fan of designer sneakers, you will undoubtedly try your hardest to keep them looking in tip-top condition (especially if they are white or pale tones). However, it can often be a difficult task when heading out into the world. In my latest review, I will check out a couple of items from Boot Black (stocked by Arterton) to keep your beloved footwear looking its absolute best! Carry on reading for more.

This range of footwear cleansing products is from the high-end brand Boot Black (a Japanese company famed for its selection of shoe care items). They have expanded their range with a ”trainer line” that aims to help you clean, protect, and moisturise the leather on your premium footwear collection.
I have featured several products from Arterton over the last few years (each earning a huge recommendation from me—take a look at their luxury coat hanger, which, incidentally, is also Japanese!). For the purpose of my review, I will focus on the Boot Black Leather Whitening Cream & Moist Lotion. Without further ado, let’s get straight onto the review!
Black Boot Sneaker Moist Lotion
Increase the longevity of your designer sneakers by applying the Boot Black Moisture Lotion to the premium leather fabric. The concoction of natural oils (that includes olive oil, almond oil, beeswax and macadamia butter) will soften up the leather (particularly useful for new overly-sturdy leathers), allowing for improved flexibility, so they can bend with your movement during wear (safer for the leather, as the lotion will defend against heavy cracking or creasing).
Black Boot Sneaker Whitening Cream
After a few wears (especially if you have been caught in the rain!), your bright white trainers will typically lose their vibrancy and appear much duller. To combat this, use the Boot Black Leather Whitening Cream to rekindle the leather, making it brighter with a touch of sparkle! (Just like when you first lifted them out of their box.)
Additionally, the cream preserves your matte leather trainers, defending them from the dangers of everyday life—dust, dirt, and the elements (looking at you, rain!).
Ease Of Use
Both of these shoe-care items are easy to use. Simply add the lotion/cream to a clean cloth and gently apply it to the leather of your designer trainers. Opt for a circular motion, ensuring you cover the entirety of the intended area, and you are good to go. The cleaning routine is that easy, you can easily squeeze it into your busy lifestyle!
Packaging
Each product from Black Boot arrives in a sleek glass bottle with white labelling and a matching lid, paired with a complementary blue text and logo. Meanwhile, the transparent glass easily showcases the white liquid within. Minimalistic by design, you would be more than happy to product display these items next to your other shoe-care items.
Value For Money
If you own designer trainers (especially classic white!), you will fully understand the need to keep them looking fresh, shiny, and new-looking! As such, the items from Black Boot are invaluable additions to your wardrobe accessories. The price point is more than reasonable, especially when you consider the extra extension added to the life of your footwear.
Summary
Whether you own a huge collection of premium sneakers or just one designer pair that is the jewel in the crown of your wardrobe, you will want to preserve their good looks! Choosing the Black Boot collection (as stocked by Arterton) will allow you to arm yourself with items that will aid you on your journey to footwear perfection. They offer professional results, easy-to-use, aesthetically pleasing packaging, and a more than reasonable price point—highly recommended by me!
