1. Toothpaste

Stay away from colored toothpaste. Squeeze non-gel white toothpaste into an old toothbrush. Brush your white shoes in a circular motion to remove the stains. Leave it for 10 to 15 minutes, then wipe the toothpaste off your shoe. Repeat it if necessary.

2. Baking soda

Prepare a small amount of hot water, white vinegar, and baking soda. In a container, add 1 tablespoon of hot water, 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of baking soda. Mix everything together until it looks like a paste consistency. Get your old toothbrush and start brushing your white shoes.

Take note that it won’t get white immediately. After covering your shoes and laces with the paste, leave them in the shade to dry. Do not expose it to direct sunlight. After a few hours, slap your shoes together to remove the dry paste.

3. Bleach

You can use bleach, but you need to be careful. If you use too much bleach, your white shoes may turn yellow. But this may not happen if you dilute it. Add 1 part bleach to 5 parts of water into a container. Make sure to wear gloves when you try this method.
