If you prefer the DIY route or don't have a Universal Cleaner handy, here's the complete step-by-step process to clean white shoes effectively at home.
Step-by-Step Guide
Remove Laces and Insoles
Take out laces and insoles. Wash laces separately in soapy water.
Brush Off Dirt
Use a dry brush to remove loose dirt and debris from the shoes.
Make Cleaning Paste
Mix 1 tbsp baking soda, 1/2 tbsp hydrogen peroxide, 1/2 tbsp water into paste.
Apply and Scrub
Apply paste with old toothbrush. Scrub in circular motions over entire shoe.
