You will need:
-1 tablespoon of laundry detergent
-A clean, dry, white cloth

###Instructions:
1. Pour a small amount of laundry detergent onto the first clean, dry cloth.
2. Rub the soiled areas of the shoes with the detergent-dampened cloth in a circular pattern. Be sure to concentrate on any heavily soiled areas.
3. Use the brush to scrub away any remaining dirt or stains.
4. Dip the second clean, dry cloth into some cold water and wring it out so that it’s damp but not dripping wet.
5. Wipe away any soap residue from the shoes with the damp cloth.
6. Allow the shoes to air dry completely before wearing them again.
Old toothbrush
An old toothbrush is one of the best materials you can use to clean white canvas tennis shoes. The bristles are stiff enough to remove dirt and stains, but gentle enough that they won’t damage the fabric. Just add a little soap and water, and scrub away.
Steps
Cleaning your shoes regularly will help them last longer and look their best. Here are some tips on how to clean your white canvas tennis shoes. First, you will need to gather your supplies. You will need a mild detergent, a toothbrush, and a clean cloth. You will also need some water.
Take the laces out of the shoes
The first step is to remove the laces from your shoes. This will help you to avoid getting cleanser and water on them while you are cleaning the rest of the shoe. It will also make it easier for you to clean all of the nooks and crannies of the shoe without having to worry about the laces getting in the way.
Mix the baking soda, vinegar, and laundry detergent together in a bowl
In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup (120 ml) of baking soda, 1/4 cup (60 ml) of white vinegar, and 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) of laundry detergent. If you don’t have any laundry detergent on hand, you can substitute dish soap.
Dunk an old toothbrush into the mixture
To clean your shoes, you will need:
-1/2 cup of baking soda
-1/4 cup of water
-An old toothbrush
-A clean cloth
1.Mix the baking soda and water together until it forms a paste.
2.Dunk an old toothbrush into the mixture and brush it onto the affected areas of your shoes. Be sure to get into all the nooks and crannies. 3.Let the paste sit on your shoes for about 15 minutes, then wipe it away with a clean cloth. 4.Repeat steps 2 and 3 if necessary. 5.Once you’re satisfied with the results, use a clean cloth to buff your shoes until they shine.
Scrub the shoes with the toothbrush
Use a toothbrush to scrub the shoes. Dip the brush in the soapy water and scrub the shoes in a circular motion. Be sure to get into all of the nooks and crannies. If your shoes are especially dirty, you may need to scrub them with a second toothbrush.
Rinse the shoes off with water
The first step is to rinse the shoes off with water. You can do this by hand or in the washing machine on a gentle cycle. If they are particularly dirty, you can scrub them with a soft bristled brush beforehand. Be sure to remove any laces or other removable parts before putting them in the washing machine.
Let the shoes air dry
Allow the shoes to air dry in a well-ventilated area. The shoes will probably be damp, so set them on a newspaper or an old towel to absorb any excess moisture.You can also stuff the shoes with wadded up newspaper to help them retain their shape while they dry.
