Are you constantly on YouTube and Google searching how to keep them clean but can never seem to find a method that works for you? Well, now you don’t have search anymore. I am going to explain the steps on how to keep your shoes looking fresh and everything that you’ll need  below.

~Necessities ~

*Bowl

* Baking Soda

*Bleach (Any Kind)

*Shoe brush or toothbrush

*Bathtub or sink (Your Choice)

*Hot or Warm water( Your Choice)

*Clean towel or rag (Small or Medium)

Step 1.

Pour 1½ cups of bleach into a bowl with 1 cup of warm or hot water.Then mix 4 tbs of baking soda, then mix thoroughly. (Depending on how dirty the shoes are you might need more or less). Now use the toothbrush to stir it thoroughly.

Step 2.

Next you’ll get over a sink or either a bathtub and use the toothbrush to scrub the mix  onto the shoes until the whole shoe is covered. (When scrubbing, use force to make sure you get a good clean.) Leave it on while you clean the other shoe.

Step 3.

Leave the mix on the shoes for about 10 minutes or until you finish scrubbing the other shoe. Then you can take the warm or hot towel and wipe the shoes down. After you rinse them in hot water, just to make sure there is no residue left on the shoe.

Step 4

After you’re done cleaning and rinsing off the shoes, now you want to either air dry them or dry them off. Once the shoes are dried, you can then buy a water protector or shoe shield to spray on them to help protect them.
