However, one woman has now revealed how an easy 15p trick spruced up her white kicks with no faff – and it’s all thanks to a special soap.
So, if your white trainers are looking grubby but you don’t want to fork out a fortune on a new pair, best keep on reading.
Sharing the game-changer of a tip she had spotted online, Rebecca Davison-Lee took to Facebook where she raved about a new product – Stain Remover Soap.
Uploading a snap of her footwear before and after using the cleaning essential, Rebecca said in the post: ”Ladies! And gents you were right about this stain soap that’s been getting shared ….bloody brilliant!
”Thanks for sharing my shoes are like brand new again saved money on replacing them.”
The soap, which is made from natural ingredients and doesn’t contain any harsh chemicals, sells for £7.99.
Although that may seem rather steep, you get a whopping 50 uses from one bar – which works out to be just 15p per use.
To get the best results and make your white sparkle like new, the brand recommends to wet the fabric first, moisten the soap and rub it into the stubborn stain.
If necessary, leave for a few minutes, then rinse with clean water or put in the washing machine.
What’s more, not only is the soap kind to your garments but also the animals, as it’s cruelty-free – a win-win.
The cleaning must-have boasts an impressive five-star rating from delighted customers, with one person claiming nothing compares to this stain-banishing soap.
”I own every stain removed on the planet and this one outdoes every one.”
Another was singing praises and wrote: ”This soap is the best stain remover soap. Takes lots out stains out. Love it, can’t be without it.”
Top Tips for Cleaning White Trainers
- A small amount of baking soda mixed with the laundry detergent can help brighten your trainers
- If your kickers have stubborn stains or are particularly dirty, you might need to repeat the cleaning process
- To maintain their shape while drying, stuff the trainers with newspaper or kitchen roll
A foodie chimed in: ”Tried it on a curry stain and it removed the stain completely. So very happy with this product.”
Fellow cleaning fans can order the soap online via the website and choose between a two-pack (£14.39) and a three-pack (£19.18).
Using a cupboard essential
However, if you need to get your trainers looking like brand new pronto and you can’t wait until the soap arrives, there’s also another way to spruce them up – by using a paste of baking soda.
Try mixing one spoon of the powder with the same measure of white vinegar and warm water, then apply the paste to the trainer using an old toothbrush, lightly scrubbing in a circular motion and leave to sit in sunlight for around three or four hours.
When the paste is fully dried, simply brush it all off to reveal your sparkling trainers.
