How To Clean Your Canvas Shoes So They Look Good As New

Step 1

Mix hydrogen peroxide and dish liquid together in a small bowl.
 

Here are a few things to keep in mind when cleaning canvas shoes:

• Avoid soaking the material in water for more than 15 minutes; this may weaken the fibres
• Use minimal pressure when scrubbing
• Avoid harsh cleaners
• Do not use bleach or bleach-based products on canvas shoes unless they are white
• Always clean the outsole of the shoe before cleaning the canvas material; you can use an old toothbrush for this
• Try to brush in one direction as opposed to constantly scrubbing back and forth 
• Be more gentle when cleaning around the stitching
