    Have not found a solution to this myself.

    But for the vinyl part, a guy at a shoe store told me Windex. I have also seen a girl use a cotton ball and alchohol.

    There is no way to keep the foot pad from getting the black footprint. Unless you use a stick in liner and change it out...

    For the uppers and heels...magic eraser is well...magic!
    If everything you try is a sure thing, you aren't taking enough risks. If you never fail, you put a limit on the degree to which you can succeed. In short, the only way to win big is to risk losing

    Always wipe your feet off w/ baby wipes (before and after putting the shoe on) then wipe the inside of the shoe with one also...helps keep them a little cleaner. Like LuckyOne said they alcohol idea will also help =0)

    I have two pairs... one for stage(which sweats) and another for floor..before i put on my floor shoes, after stage, i wipe my feet with a baby wipe and Germ-X. When its time to clean them eventually...i use regualr laundry soap in the sink. Doesnt come all the way clean...but at least they wont stink so much any more.
    I got the second pair after i took off my shoes to do a private dance and the guy literally got up and ran. Yeaah,they were pretty funky and even i could smell them standing up almost 6 ft. above my feet... LOL
    ( my club is real clean,we all take our shoes off for dances because we got new leather couches and will be fined if shoes on them) Again, I keep Germ-X wipes.

    i keep a container of lysol wipes in my locker
    i used to dream militant dreams / of taking over america / to show these white folks how it should be done
    i used to dream radical dreams / of blowing everyone away / with my perceptive powers of correct analysis
    i even used to think / id be the one to stop the riot and negotiate the peace / then i awoke and dug
    that if i dreamed natural dreams / of being a natural woman
    doing what a woman does / when shes natural
    i would have a revolution

    How do you get that smell out of thigh high boots?
