How to Clean Your Canvas Sneakers

Canvas sneakers are not only comfortable, but they've been a part of the fashion world for many years. Walking down a street, you see a number of people who wear canvas sneakers, but because of everyday usage, sneakers are subjected to a lot of dirt. Fortunately, they're designed for an easy clean up. Let's make your Canvas sneaker shine like brand new.
  1. First, remove all big pieces of dirt by patting the soles of the sneakers together.

  2. Remove the laces from the sneakers and you can start cleaning them. For deep cleaning use warm soapy water and a toothbrush. Scrub the sneakers till all mud or dirt are gone. If your sneakers smells awfully, sprinkle some baking soda inside them to remove the odour. Once you've cleaned the sneakers, rinse them with cold water.
  3. Utilize a nylon brush to clean though stains. If your canvas sneakers are colourful, ensure that you wash them with a non-bleaching liquid soap.
  4. It's time to take care of the laces. You can wash them by hand, but if you have soft and sensitive skin this can cause you blisters. So take the laces and place them in the washing machine and let it the done the work for you. For deep cleaning, soak the laces in bleach overnight.
  5. If your sneakers are made of leather, use a leather cleaner to wash them.
  6. When your sneakers are clean and dry, apply some white canvas shoe polish to make them sparkle.
