Sneakerasers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sneakerasers (stylized as SneakERASERS), formerly called Sole Rubbers, is an American manufacturer of sneaker-cleaning products.[1]

Created by Ohio University alumni Chris Pavlica and Kevin Consolo,[2][3] the product was designed to cheaply maintain the white color of rubber soles on sneakers.[4][5] During an appearance on the twelfth season of Shark Tank, Pavlica and Consolo made a deal with Lori Greiner and Alex Rodriguez for a 20% stake in their company.[6][7] It was announced in December 2023 that the company had partnered with Skechers to manufacture SkechERASERS for the brand worldwide.[8]
