Can sports shoes be washed? (Six ways to teach you how to properly clean sneakers!)
In life, many friends are enthusiastic about sports, and sports shoes are a necessary equipment for every friend who loves sports. But how should dirty sneakers be cleaned correctly?
1. Soak the vamp and shoes.
Generally speaking, sports shoes can be washed with clean water, but they cannot be washed with washing powder because they contain phosphorus, which can easily turn shoes yellow. Dip a toothbrush in toothpaste on the heel of the shoe, and after washing, apply a layer of white paper to the upper to ensure that the shoe does not change color when it dries. If soaked for a long time, it can also affect the use of shoes. During the cleaning process, try not to use machine washing or soaking.
2. Remove the odor from the shoes.
It is best to wash thoroughly with Baijiu or white vinegar. After washing the shoes, add a basin of warm water, then add a small amount of white vinegar, and soak the shoes in for about half an hour. You can also sprinkle Baijiu directly, because Baijiu has a strong volatility, which can remove the peculiar smell of sports shoes.
3. Remove and clean the shoelace and insole.
If you don't take off the laces, it's not easy to thoroughly clean your sneakers. Because the brush cannot penetrate into your shoes, it naturally cannot be cleaned. Therefore, before washing shoes, be sure to untie the laces and wash them with soap.
4. Clean the sole of the shoe.
Brush the soles carefully, both inside and outside, and repeatedly clean the shoes. Pour out the dirty water and replace it with clean water. Soak your shoes in water. Actually, there is no need to brush soap. Brush your shoes with a toothbrush. What pebbles are there in the glue seam on the sole of the shoe? You can pick them out with a toothpick.
Mesh sneakers
Do not use a plastic brush to brush the surface of the mesh, as the plastic brush will brush the surface of the mesh out of hairballs. It is best to use a soft brush, which not only ensures quick cleaning of the shoes, but also prevents the upper from being scratched. Use an old toothbrush, but don't use the type with all the old hair curled up.
Leather sneakers
Try to avoid washing leather sneakers with water. Generally, it is wiped with a towel to protect the leather.
5. Sprinkle water to dry your shoes.
Throw the shoes dry instead of throwing them into the washing machine. You can first squeeze some water from the soft area of the shoe with your thumb, and then grasp the midsole. The direction of the heel should be in the front, and the toe should face your back. Start swinging your arms back and forth several times. The more times you throw it, the better it will be for your shoes. After cleaning, place the shoe toe down in a ventilated place to dry, and dry the shoe at room temperature to prevent water from immersing in the foam material of the midsole.
6. Daily shoe maintenance
For leather maintenance, shoe polish is used for maintenance. When not wearing shoes, wipe them clean and then apply shoe polish to maintain the overall color of the shoes. Mesh sneakers should be carefully maintained and supported when not worn. Mesh shoes can easily deform because they cannot be supported.
