One step forward For canvas shoes, try a gentle wash in the
washing machine. Get rid of any excess dirt first, pop in a washing
bag or pillowcase, and wash laces separately. Leave to air dry.
Thinking outside of the box Try sponging with washing-up liquid
and warm water, or using a toothbrush and paste. Shampoo is
worth a go on oily stains. Stuff with newspaper to help them dry
out. For marks on the sole, you can try using an eraser, or even
applying nail varnish remover using a clean cloth.
Kitted out If that all seems too homespun, try specialist products.
Flat shoe blogger En Brogue (enbrogue.comg ) recommends two
bits of specific cleaning kit: Crep Protect’s ‘Ultimate Shoe Care
Pack’ (crepprotect.compp ) and William Green’s cleaning tonic
(available throughgrenson.comg ). And suede needs its own
dedicated cleaner, too – unless you’re prepared to risk using white
vinegar instead. Of course, you can also buy protection spray
to help prevent your kicks getting so grubby to begin with.GET YOUR TRAINERS LOOKING ‘BOX FRESH’ AGAIN
