THE CARE KIT

Starting a care routine shouldn't require research, multiple purchases and trial and error. The TENO Care Kit brings together the four essentials of the Clean step - the right formula, the right tools, for every material you own.

One kit. One gesture. The beginning of a longer relationship with the objects you care about.

• Four tools that together cover every material and every cleaning situation - leather, suede, nubuck, textile, rubber and synthetics
• The dual-bristle brush eliminates the need for two separate brushes - one tool, two functions
• The suede eraser handles minor marks without water or product - the quickest possible response to a fresh scuff
• The TENO Cleaning Spray included at full 100ml - not a sample, a complete first bottle
• Designed as a complete starting point for the TENO Care System - everything needed for the Clean step
• Presented in the TENO Care Kit box - a considered object, worth giving

A sneaker is the most complex everyday object most people own. It's not unusual for a single pair to combine leather, suede, textile mesh, rubber and synthetic overlays - all in one object.

We observed something simple from this : if a product can effectively and safely care for a sneaker, it can care for most objects we own. The same leather that makes up the toe cap of a sneaker is the same leather* that makes up a handbag. The same suede on a sneaker panel is the same suede on a jacket. The material is the same - only the object changes.

The TENO Care Kit is built on this principle - four tools that together cover every material, every object, every cleaning situation.

*The care logic is similar across leather grades - clean, nourish, protect. The grade, tanning and finish of leather vary significantly between a sneaker and a luxury handbag, but the material's needs remain similar.

• TENO Cleaning Spray - 100ml
  A universal cleaning solution formulated to effectively remove dirt and stains while preserving materials. Water-based, biodegradable surfactants.
• TENO Dual-Bristle Brush
  Two bristle types, one brush. Soft bristles on one side for delicate uppers - leather, vegan leather, mesh and textile. Stiff bristles on the other for durable materials and tough stains - rubber soles, canvas and heavily soiled surfaces.
• Microfibre Cloth
  For gently wiping away foam and lifted dirt after brushing. Can also be used directly on the most delicate materials as an alternative to the brush - softer contact, same result.
• Suede & Nubuck Eraser
  For removing minor scuffs and stains from suede and nubuck without water. Rub lightly over the affected area in a back-and-forth motion until the mark disappears. No product required - dry use only.

Anionic Surfactants (<5%)
The primary cleaning agents - negatively charged surfactants that effectively lift and suspend dirt, grease and stains from material surfaces, allowing them to be wiped away cleanly without damaging the underlying material.

Non-Ionic Surfactants (<5%)
Complementary cleansing agents that work alongside the anionic surfactants - particularly effective on oil-based soils and residues. Their neutral charge makes them especially gentle on sensitive materials like suede and nubuck.

2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-Dioxolan-4-Ylmethanol (Glycerol Formal - 2.5-3%)
A bio-sourced solvent that enhances the formula's penetrating action - helps the surfactants reach and lift soiling embedded deep in porous materials like textile and leather grain.

Linalool + Parfum (Bergamot)
A subtle fragrance note that leaves a clean, fresh scent after use
