White shoes are hard to keep clean. You can try so hard to keep them clean, but there will be a time when you give up. Don't worry! I'll show you a way to get them white again.

Supplies

Supplies that is included are Tide, Oxxi Clean, Borrax, and Vinegar.

Step 1: Prewash

Grab a pillowcase and put the shoes in the pillowcase. Load the washing machine with the items. Wash it like a load of white clothing. The pillowcase will protect the shoes from any discoloring if there is any other colors on the shoes. This first step is supposed to wash all the sweat and dirt off the shoes.

Step 2: Set Up the Supplies

Put equal measurements of the Tide, Oxi Clean, and Borax into a bowl. In a separate bowl, pour some Vinegar into the bowl.

Step 3: Scrubbing

After the washing stops, start scrubbing the shoes. With a toothpaste, dip into the vinegar then dip into the mixture of the dry ingredients (Tide, Oxi Clean, and Borrax). Keep scrubbing and rinsing as much as needed.

Step 4: Drying the Shoes

Wash the shoes one more time in the washing machine.

As you can tell there is a big difference between the shoes. The left shoe I didn't scrub while the right shoe I did scrub.
