The shoes we usually wear need to be cleaned at regular intervals. Regular cleaning not only ensures the cleanliness of the shoes but also prolongs their wearing time. How to clean shoes made of different materials, and what should be paid attention to during the cleaning process? Let's take a look together:
1、 Suede shoes
Suede shoes require a lot of effort to clean them because their material is difficult to clean. Firstly, you can use a hair adhesive or tape to remove the dust and fuzz that has been adsorbed on the shoe upper. Dilute the detergent and white vinegar with warm water, use a soft bristle brush to dip in an appropriate amount of cleaning agent, then wipe with a damp towel, and finally blow dry with a hair dryer. During the process of brushing and wiping, pay attention to keeping the direction consistent with the suede surface.
2、 Sports shoes
First, separate the shoes and shoelaces, then remove the insole and clean them separately. Wet the shoes with clean water first, then use a brush dipped in soapy water to brush. It is best not to use laundry detergent, which contains phosphorus, which can easily make the shoes turn yellow. Soak the shoelaces in soapy water and directly rub them with your hands. Use a soft brush to dip the insoles in soapy water for brushing.
After brushing, we can soak the shoes in warm water with white vinegar to remove the odor of the shoes. Finally, rinse with clean water and let it dry. After drying, place a shoe brace or newspaper in the shoe to help restore its original shape.
3、 Leather shoes
When cleaning leather shoes, it is not advisable to use a damp cloth to wipe them. We can first use a cloth to clean the surface dust, and then use a damp towel to wipe the other parts of the shoes. Then place it in a cool and ventilated place to dry or wipe it dry with a dry towel. Remember not to expose it to direct sunlight, otherwise it may cause damage to the cortex. Finally, apply the shoe polish evenly to the upper, wait for the polish to dry, and then use a rubber brush to apply the leather shoes, making the color distribution of the polish more uniform.
