    Shoe Cleaner / Sneaker Care Specialist

    Nowhere Store LLC — Stamford, CT

    Nowhere Store is looking for a dependable and detail-oriented Shoe Cleaner / Sneaker Care Specialist to join our team. We are a fast-paced sneaker, clothing, and luxury resale store specializing in both pre-owned and brand-new merchandise.

    The Shoe Cleaner will be responsible for cleaning and preparing pre-owned footwear before it is photographed, listed, displayed, or sold. This position is ideal for someone who takes pride in their work, has strong attention to detail, and understands that presentation is extremely important when dealing with high-end sneakers and designer footwear.

    Responsibilities

    Deep clean pre-owned sneakers and footwear

    Clean midsoles, outsoles, uppers, laces, insoles, and other components

    Work carefully with materials including leather, suede, nubuck, mesh, canvas, and specialty fabrics

    Remove dirt, stains, odors, and surface marks whenever safely possible

    Prepare shoes to look their best before being photographed and listed for sale

    Identify stains, damage, or materials that require special treatment before cleaning

    Keep cleaning supplies, tools, and the work area organized

    Handle expensive and collectible footwear with extreme care

    Maintain a consistent cleaning standard across all inventory

    Work efficiently to keep up with incoming inventory in a fast-paced store environment

    What We're Looking For

    Previous sneaker-cleaning or restoration experience is preferred, but we are willing to train the right person. You should be reliable, organized, careful with expensive merchandise, comfortable working independently, and able to maintain quality while working efficiently.

    Knowledge of sneakers, streetwear, designer footwear, and brands such as Nike, Jordan, Yeezy, New Balance, Balenciaga, Louis Vuitton, Dior, Gucci, and similar brands is a plus.

    Location: Stamford, Connecticut Company: Nowhere Store LLC

    Why work at Nowhere? Join a growing resale business where you'll work hands-on with rare sneakers, designer footwear, and new inventory every day while developing valuable sneaker-care and restoration skills.
