As a huge fan of the canvas shoes, some of us are all
the time in deeply love with the white Converse/Vans shoes, even deeper than
the custom painted shoes. However, what troubles them most is the
yellowing of their beloved babies and speed of becoming dirty with the time
goes by. This is may not only for them, but also for all of us who have the
white sneakers in the shoe box. Don’t worry, there’s always a method resolving
it. Today, I’m gonna share the method with you.
First of all, fill a sink half-full with warm water.
Add a few drops of dish detergent into the water and mix until the water is
foamy. Use a gentle bleach-free detergent. Remove immediately and transfer to
dryer to dry on low heat.
Then dip a kitchen sponge into the soapy water and
wring it out. Wipe off stains and dirt from the Vans by brushing them with the
soapy sponge. Repeat this process until all of the dirt and stains are removed.
If the rubber still has yellow spots, rub a dime-sized amount of whitewall-tire
cleaner and a cloth.
For the Vans, rinse the outside of the Vans under tap
water to get rid of the soap residue. Place the Vans on an old towel, and dab
them with the towel to help dry them out. Leave the Vans on the towel in a dry
room for a few days until they are completely dry.
At last, Spray shoes with a water and stain repellant.
Water and stain repellant makes future cleaning easier and should prevent yellow
spots.
In this way, with using the methods mentioned above,
your beloved Converse/Vans white canvas shoes will become white and new again.
