Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓This guide will show you how clean white Converse High tops. This guide is also works for any other pairs of white converse made out of canvas material.
This method is my personal way of cleaning my converse, I’ve used this method on all my white converse and it never fails to leave my shoes looking clean and good as new. Personally I like to wash my shoes by hand rather than in a washing machine since machines don’t scrub stains directly. I found that washing my shoes by hand lets me get more use out of them. It’s better to wash shoes and give them a second chance rather just tossing them out.
