Canvas and suede shoes are stylish and comfortable, but they can easily get dirty and lose their charm. Cleaning them properly is important to maintain their appearance and prolong their lifespan. In this step-by-step guide, we will walk you through the process of cleaning canvas and suede shoes effectively.

Preparation

Before starting the cleaning process, gather the following materials:

  • Soft brush or toothbrush
  • Mild detergent
  • Water
  • White vinegar
  • Clean cloth

Cleaning Canvas Shoes

Follow these steps to clean canvas shoes:

  1. Remove any loose dirt from the surface of your shoes by gently brushing them with a soft brush or toothbrush.
  2. Mix a small amount of mild detergent with water to create a soapy solution.
  3. Dip the brush into the solution and scrub the canvas gently in circular motions. Pay attention to any stained areas.
  4. Rinse the shoes with clean water to remove the soap.
  5. If there are still stains, mix equal parts of white vinegar and water, and apply the solution to the stained areas. Leave it for a few minutes, then rinse again with water.
  6. Wipe your shoes with a clean, dry cloth to remove excess moisture.
  7. Let the shoes air dry completely before wearing or storing them.

Cleaning Suede Shoes

Follow these steps to clean suede shoes:

  1. Use a soft brush or toothbrush to gently brush away any dirt or debris from the suede surface. Brush in one direction to avoid damaging the suede fibers.
  2. If there are stains on your suede shoes, dampen a clean cloth with water and gently rub the stained area. Be careful not to soak the suede.
  3. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct sunlight or excessive heat.
  4. Once the shoes are dry, brush them again in one direction to restore the nap of the suede. This will help remove any remaining dirt and restore the texture.
  5. If there are still visible stains, use a pencil eraser or suede eraser to gently rub the stained areas. Be gentle to avoid damaging the suede.
  6. For tougher stains, use a small amount of white vinegar on a clean cloth to dab the stain gently. Allow it to dry naturally without rinsing.
  7. After cleaning, protect your suede shoes by applying a suede protector spray. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the best results.
