Reply:Things You’ll Need:





Cool water


Old toothbrush or soft scrubbing brush


Mild soap


Paper towels


White tube sock


Washing machine








Step 1:


Let wet and muddy shoes dry before cleaning them. Take shoes outside and beat them together or against a hard surface to remove caked on mud and dirt.





Step 2:


Take the shoe laces out of the shoes. Put the laces inside a long tube sock and tie a knot in the top of the sock. Wash and dry the laces with like colors.





Step 3:


Wet the shoes with cool water. Apply a mild soap to a soft scrubbing brush. Scrub both the inside and outside of the shoes with the brush. Apply more soap as needed.





Step 4:


Wash the soap off of the shoes with clean cool water. Scrub stubborn stains with additional soap. Rinse all soap out of the shoes.





Step 5:


Dump excess water out of the shoes. Blot the shoes dry with a clean white towel. Crinkle heavy duty paper towels into balls. Stuff the paper towels into the shoes to absorb water.





Step 6:


Set the shoes on a surface where they can dry at room temperature. Remove the wet paper towels from the shoes after an hour. Replace them with dry paper towels. Change out the paper towels frequently until all of the excess moisture is absorbed.





Step 7:


Replace the laces in the tennis shoes. Purchase new laces when the old laces do not come as clean as the shoes.
Reply:The washing machine is a bit rough on leather if they're made of that... I wouldn't do that too often.





Try Soft Scrub very gently and rinse good, then put a clear protective shoe polish on when they're dry. Those magic scrub sponges also work miracles.





And if all else fails, get some white shoe polish!
Reply:try the magic eraser things...you know, mr. clean makes them...
Reply:Are the shoes canvas or all white cloth? if so wet shoes cover stained area with iodized salt set in sun until shoe and salt are dry knock off dry salt, shoes should be good as new.
