#1 Washing-up liquid and toothpaste

Things you need:
• washing-up liquid
• toothpaste
• a brush
• water
• a white towel
Step by step:
With a slightly dump brush apply some washing-up liquid onto the dirty trainers. Then gently brush them and remove the foam that accumulates with a white towel. Next use white toothpaste. Again, while brushing, remove the foam that forms with the towel. Finally leave the towels to dry for a couple of hours.

#2 Baking soda

Things you need:
• baking soda or baking powder
• vinegar
• water
Step by step:
Soak the shoes with water. Then mix baking soda and vinegar in 1:1 ratio. Rub the mixture into the sneakers with a brush. Finally wash them with running water, still brushing.
The mixture can be applied both on the cotton part of the shoes as well as their rubber sole.
