How To Clean White Converse

Cleaning your white converse is essential for keeping them looking like new. With just a few simple steps, you can restore your white converse to their original, bright-white condition in no time.

Step 1: Preparing to Clean
Before you start cleaning your white converse, it’s important to make sure they’re clean prior to starting. Use a damp cloth to remove any loose dirt and dust from the laces and the outside of your shoes.

Step 2: Use Baking Soda and Vinegar
Fill a bowl with a mixture of one part white vinegar and two parts warm water. Dip a clean cloth in the mixture and use it to scrub the outside of your converse until they are clean. You can also sprinkle some baking soda on the cloth and scrub the shoes gently. The baking soda helps loosen any stubborn dirt.

Step 3: Rinse and Dry
Once you’re done scrubbing, rinse the shoes well with clean water. Make sure to remove all of the vinegar solution. Then, dry your shoes with a clean cloth or let them air-dry.

Step 4: Clean the Laces
To clean the laces of your converse, fill a bowl with warm water and a few drops of liquid dish soap. Let your laces soak in this mixture for a few minutes and then rinse them with clean water. Let them air-dry before putting them back in your shoes.

Step 5: Finish off with White Shoe Polish
If needed, finish off your white converse by applying a generous amount of white shoe polish. Cover all surfaces of the shoes, making sure to get into the nooks and crannies. Let the polish dry completely before wearing or storing your shoes.

With just a few simple steps, you can have your white converse looking like new in no time. Cleaning your shoes regularly will help them last longer, and keep them looking nice.
