Essential shoes of any good wardrobe, white sneakers are now a great classic that it is good to have in his wardrobe. The problem is that they don't usually stay white for very long. Between rain, dust and daily use, your brand new favorite pair will quickly turn gray. However, it is possible - with a little elbow grease - to recover very damaged white Sneakers .

  • Fifth step: once your shoe is perfectly clean, it is important to nourish the leather. To do this, you can use a body lotion or cream polish. Massage the product on the shoe to make it penetrate. Once the product is dry, polish the shoe with an old sock or a chamois to make it shine

How to care for Sneakers suede or nubuck?

Suede, suede goat or nubuck Sneakers require a little different care than smooth leather Sneakers . These materials are not more fragile than others, but unfortunately they tend to accumulate more dust and darken more quickly. Careful and regular maintenance is therefore essential for these materials.

  • First step: using a soft bristle brush, scrub the entire shoe (including the sole) to remove dust stored in the material
  • Second step: for the most stubborn stains, use a crepe brush, specially designed for the maintenance of velvety materials. Be careful, you must brush dry and in the direction of the suede. If, in spite of this maneuver, the stains do not go away, it is possible to use some "terre de Sommières", a suede gum or a mixture based on 2 tablespoons of water and 1 tablespoon of vinegar
  • Third step: once the stains are removed, let your sneakers dry and then nourish the leather with a spray adapted to suede. Finally, brush your shoes again to restore the shine to the material

Lighter than the Sneakers leather sneakers, they are a pleasure to wear when the weather is nice and accompany us in our daily lives. But, like leather sneakers, canvas versions are not immune to dirt. Fortunately, it is possible to restore their shine in just a few minutes.

  • First step: Scrub your canvas shoes vigorously with a standard brush. Be careful with the material, however, as brushing with too much force can cause threads to be pulled out.
  • Second step: for the cleaning, everything will depend on the color of the sneaker. If it is color white, use a cloth soaked in baking soda and water. If the canvas is dark, use a cloth with water and soap. Before doing anything else, let your sneakers air dry

  • Step Four: Where you store your Sneakers is critical to its durability. Choose a dry, airy place. Don't stack your shoes on top of each other and, above all, never leave a wet shoe in the middle of other pairs
  • Bonus: Sneakers canvas tends to soak up bad odors more easily. To prevent this, sprinkle baking soda into Sneakers (or put the soda in a small tulle bag) when you're not wearing your pair. You can also use black tea bags to get rid of bad smells.
