Meet Kris

The person behind every clean, raised on sneaker culture and real care.

Kris didn’t learn sneaker cleaning from YouTube. He learned it from his dad. Growing up, his pops made sure the kids kept their sneakers clean and taught them how to do it the right way. Toothbrush. Dish soap. Bathroom sink. That was the original setup. Kris has been cleaning sneakers since he was about ten years old, long before this ever looked like a business.

Fast forward to today, Kris is a healthcare recruiter by day and the CEO of Fresh Marketing Solution on the side, but sneaker culture has always been the constant. He’s always kept his own pairs fresh. He’s always been the guy who knows his materials. He’s always been the person who pays attention to the details.

The crazy part? He wasn’t planning to turn this into a sneaker spa. He sat on the idea of Nextdoor Sneakerz for three years. Then his wife told him, “You should actually do it.” That was the push. And once he started taking it seriously, it clicked.

Now Kris is the only person cleaning every pair that comes through Nextdoor Sneakerz. Every Fried Hard revival. Every Deep Clean. Every Fresh Clean. He puts in the extra time because he loves the culture and the transformation. His favorite clean is the Fried Hard because the before-and-after hits different.

And if the name sounds familiar, Kris is the grandson of the late Ramsey Lewis, a legend in his own lane. Hard work runs in the family. People say Kris is always grinding, always creating, always pushing. That same energy is in every pair he touches.

WHY WE DO THIS

Because sneakers matter. Because the culture matters. Because your kicks deserve respect.

Sneakers say something about us. They carry memories, personality, and the culture we come from. They deserve care that matches the meaning behind them.

Nextdoor Sneakerz exists to keep your rotation fresh, keep your heat alive, and keep your favorite pairs from getting tossed when they still have life left in them. Kris puts real care into every clean because he knows what it feels like to love a pair enough to want it restored the right way.

This isn’t just a service.

IT’S CRAFT.

IT’S CULTURE.

IT’S COMMUNITY.

The Sneakerz Principles

The rules we live by.

1. Every pair matters.

We treat your sneakers with the same care we treat our own. Heat, beaters, grails, daily drivers. Everything gets respect.

2. Technique over shortcuts.

Real cleaning takes skill. We choose the method that protects your materials and delivers results that last.

3. Details are everything.

From stitching to soles, every part of your sneaker gets attention. Nothing gets rushed. Nothing gets ignored.

4. Clean builds confidence.

Fresh sneakers change how you feel, how you move, and how you step into your day. We make sure your pair reflects that.

5. Culture guides us.

Sneakers are part of the communities we grew up in. The work we do honors that culture, the people in it, and the stories behind every pair.
