washing white sneakers

[bigCASH]

would putting white sneakers in the washing machine then the dryer ruin the shoes?

It is possible.

go buy that shit people use to clean white wall tires

Man, just use dish washing liquid on the outside, it works fine.

Use a soap and a tooth brush. It'll look fresh. If the white color is scraped away, use white out. I myself, haven't tried white out yet.

lol @ the white out. that don't work all that great. I usually get a small cup and put hot water, toothpaste and soap in it. Keeping sneakers clean can be a bitch and a half though. I hate unlacing my shoes, cleaning them and then lacing them back up. I wish I could just buy a new pair of sneakers each time the ones I am wearing get dirty.

^So, how do you get the color back when the white color is scraped off, buddy?

I always use bathroom cleaning "mousse" its not as harsh as other cleaners but works a treat on trainers/sneakers

Yeah it probaly will, when i wash mine i just dry them under the radiator!!

 

[T.M.O.S]

Just use a toothbrush and lots of soapy water!

i washed my white adidas's the other day , dirty as fuck , just took a toothbrush , some dish washing liquid. Works wonders . For the inside i just used one of those soft nail brushes , again , dishwashing liquid some hot water, and scrubbed the inside , left them upside down over night , and they came out white white !!

good to footlocker, get white sneaker cleaner. it has a brush and everything. then also buy white shoe polish, shit is amaaaaaaaaazing, turns it white white. then wait for it to dry and spray it with weather protection.

3 steps work

[Makiaveli]

well the polish is MADE for ur purpose where as the rest is just make shift. not saying they wont work ( i havent tried) but this foot locker stuff is safe
