White sneakers look great for about two weeks. After that, NCR dust, monsoon puddles and the daily commute catch up.
Wipe them weekly
Brush off dry dust, then wipe the upper and sole edges with a damp cloth and a drop of mild soap.
Clean laces separately
Grey laces make clean shoes look dirty. Soak them in soapy water or replace them.
Avoid these mistakes
- Washing machine — it can unglue soles and misshape the shoe
- Bleach on fabric uppers — it often turns them yellow
- Drying in direct sun or on a heater — it yellows rubber and cracks leather
Store them right
Stuff with paper to keep the shape, keep them out of sunlight, and put a sachet of baking soda inside.
When to get them professionally cleaned
If stains have set, the inside smells, or the shoes are leather or suede, a professional clean is safer. We clean shoes at ₹299 a pair — see sneaker cleaning and leather shoe cleaning.
