Based on the stiffness of the bristles, especially the sides, does the possibility that this may damage sneakers seem high?

The bristles ARE stiffer than most. However, I have used them on my sneakers (including the sides of the sneakers). The key is to not be overly aggressive. Go slow until you are confident it is not going to damage your shoes.

The bristles are quite firm. So far I have found the brush to be satisfactory with little loss of bristles with use.

Probably not as well. I had cracks where my feet rested on a vinyl coach which elevates my feet and the cracks keep coming back. I have treated it twice. but, it is easy to use.

I wouldn't use this mat with sneakers or any other work out footgear other then what it was intended for; yoga. In my opinion I think it would probably be fine, since it it such a great mat, but you wouldn't be getting the longevity of the mat like you would if it were only used for yoga or Pilates.

I have not had any issues. However, if you are incorrectly cleaning them and leaving them to dry in an incorrect position, this could be possible with any brush.

Not sure! Without going and looking at the package which in in storage, but it sounds like it when the shoes hit together. We used it for one event, and it proved to be a satisfactory product.

I would say it is worth a shot. I use the extra coarse on really bad areas and then wash my feet, cover them with EucErin from the tubs (extra thick) and I can't believe how much better my feet are. You will notice a differeeve after the first use and be pretty happy after several uses which become necessary less frequently.

No, they will hurt themselves and probably break the shoe. It's a hard plastic.

I have never seen the brush in a store. I only discovered it on a construction site, when I asked to feel it I found the bristles very stiff. This bristles will not flatten under pressure like some typical store varieties. I bought several here, very pleased.

I would say no....perhaps a stain but that's about it...The rails are not perfectly smooth

The brush has stiff bristle. It worked well for what I needed. Hope this helps.

No, that seemed to be ok. It should feel stiff. With use it should get easier to use.

No... And from my experience it may not be a good idea as my son kicks and wipes his feet on them a lot and it would tear the pockets or mess up what is in there I would guess..

Most definitely. Anything spiky will damage your carpet. You have the option of not putting the spikes on though, using the original "flat feet."

Yes. I bought this to refinish a pair of my wife's very expensive high heels. She was nervous at first thinking it would flake off in the courtroom or stain her nylon feet but it has held up extremely well. Of course in her profession her footwear does not take a beating.{LAWYER} I guess it all depends on what your shoes go through. All in all has worked well or I would not have lived to see my 37th birthday this month. LOL. Hope this helps.

I would not describe the bristles as soft. They will yield to pressure if pressed down with a thumb, but are fairly firm. You could control the amount of pressure applied for a more delicate surface.

Not really; your brush will slide a little. I've used it a few times for travel and haven't noticed any damage to my brushes.
