How to clean cloth shoes
Steps to follow:
1
Although it is not the most recommended, many use the washing machine to clean cloth shoes. It is true that they will be completely clean and like new, but we must also keep in mind that not all fabrics are the same and that many of them do not withstand the washing cycle, because over time they can begin to fade. holes appear in the fabric and end up breaking down. If you are going to put them in the washing machine, first remove the laces and wash them on a short program, in cold water and with a gentle spin.
2
To keep them in good condition and clean cloth shoes correctly, the ideal is to carry out the following steps. First, remove the laces, shake the soles to remove all accumulated dirt and brush with soft bristles over the surface of the shoe to remove dust and clean it superficially.
3
Prepare a solution in a small container by mixing a little water, neutral soap and baking soda. Stir the three ingredients well until you obtain a homogeneous mixture.
4
Now with the help of a soft-toothed toothbrush apply the mixture to the fabric of the shoes. Do it with circular movements and without rubbing abruptly. Focus a little more on the areas with stains to eliminate them completely.
5
Once they are very clean, wipe with a damp cloth over the surface of the shoes to rinse them and remove soap residue.
6
Finally, crumple a sheet of newspaper and insert it into each of the shoes to prevent them from becoming deformed. Place them in a shady place which does not have direct sunlight and is away from heat sources, thus preventing marks from being left and staining again while they dry.
