I Apologize for all the harm that the word "converses" has done to you all. I have learned my lesson and changed my ways. So uhh, feel free to share my mistakes with your friends guys and let's change the world, one grammatical error at a time.
Guys the title of this video is "how I clean converse" Not "how to clean converse" she's just sharing her method of the way she does it . Give her a break
I recently cleaned my converse too. What also works without the bleach (yikes) is 1) Drench the converse, without laces, in hot (but not boiling) water, and use a brush to scrub off any surface dirt + grime, then rinse again with water. 2) Get some baking soda infused toothpaste and scrub all over the wet converse with a toothbrush (one that isn’t being used, lol) the baking soda will whiten the canvas material and will also help take off all of the scuff marks and dirt in between the ridges. 3) The last step is to leave out to dry in direct sunlight, since the sun will play its part in “bleaching” the white shoe, as well. And as for the laces, just put them in the washing machine. Worked for me! My converse are pure white!
My mom washed my converse with vinegar and cold water in the washer , and they came out looking brand new ! Just don't put them to dry in the sun , Then they'll change colors . Hope this tip might help !! (:
Throwing bleach on your lawn is really bad for the environment.. When it rains, the chemicals are passed through to other areas that are green/living.. You should dispose of Soap/Bleach water properly (usually via the sink is best). Just a little tip to be more planet friendly :) Having that said, your shoes came out pretty clean! thanks for the tip
latinvanity Thanks you're right. At the time we did it because our parents didn't want us playing around with bleach in the house. But good to know for next time :)
Lmao! I knew someone will actually say that, but damn a lot of ppl agree, I too one of them...it's pretty bad, dump it on a trash can next time maybe? : )
thank u so much for this video. i did it and i honestly think it came out better than the day i bought it. I've been looking for videos on how to clean white converse and yours is by far the best
Great video, this is really helpful. I have a pair of Converse that was starting to look nasty and this method worked amazingly. Another product you can use (if you don't want to use bleach or laundry detergent) is Oxy Clean. Just put the Converse in the bucket with a scoop of Oxy Clean powder and let them sit, then scrub them up. Also, something I recently learned is that you can buy off brand Magic Erasers that are called "Melamine Cleaning Sponges" and they are so much cheaper and work just as well! Hope that helps some fellow Converse lovers out there.
Wont submerging your whole shoe in water damage the sole of the shoe? I have a pair of white converse and I've always been so hesitant so I'm just asking out of curiosity...
Nope the sole is perfectly fine. It’s rubber, nothing will happen. Some people even throw their shoes in the washing machine but I wouldn’t recommend going that far lol
I think careful cleaning is probably one of the best tips. But in the long term you can damage your shoes. This is the reason because I'm wearing special cedarsoles in my shoes. They give my shoes a permanently good and fresh smelling fragrance.
Sponges made from the identical material as the Magic Eraser are available online at spongeoutlet.com for as little as $0.29 per sponge and shipping is free! These are not cheap - potentially hazardous - Chinese knock-offs. They are the identical material and made right here in the United States!
MAJOR3058 how bout u shut that fat mouth of yours? Ur dumb. The video said don't air dry how was Lindsey supposed to know what else to do. Learn something in kindergarten sweetheart
there is a much easier way, baking soda, warm water, washing detergent and scrub them with a scrub brush, bleach isn't needed, buy new shoe strings for $2, throw your shoes in the washer and dryer at a laundromat and be done, they come out as good as new

wow... I've only ever said it that way as well. I don't care to change either. Can't wait to try this on my CONVERSES!
Who cares? Ignore the saddos that make such a stupîd remark . Your vid is great
I care about the toxic you trow in to the garden... Please, put that water down the toilet or sink next time. But thank you for the video.

Your so pretty and your skin is flawless and your voice is so gentle
lizzy gotstyle aww thank you! :D
thank you for this video. I've always been looking for the safest method to washing converse. and this might be the safest method.
omg! thank you so much for this tutorial for cleaning white converse!!! I really needed to clean mine. thank you so very much!
I know I'm in 2015 but jeez your just a life saver my shoes turned out white as snow just like you said but did you scrub your laces with bleach?
*doesn't even have converse*
This is so helpful, I just got those shoes and I'm so worried and paranoid about them getting dirty 😂
What is you have some black on your shoe as well. I'm guessing the black will fade with the bleach.
Wont submerging your whole shoe in water damage the sole of the shoe? I have a pair of white converse and I've always been so hesitant so I'm just asking out of curiosity...
Nope the sole is perfectly fine. It’s rubber, nothing will happen. Some people even throw their shoes in the washing machine but I wouldn’t recommend going that far lol
Nice! But can I do it to my neon yellow ones without the color coming off? They are very colory.
Is bleach, detergent, and water the same for the laces, white rubber part, and the cloth part?
so am i supposed just put the shoes in the shade to dry .... the laces i put them inside to dry on a rack . is that good or nah ??
After you let the laces sit in the bleach and then wash them with soap do you dry them in the dryer ????
Hey, will this work if I'm trying to bleach my ceds ? Theyre flats with wedges and its green. I wanna bleach it to white
Can it be any type of detergent ? Cause I only have tide 😅😅
I love this video! I love how you can actually find these things in your house 😅 life saver
I know right! I think most DIY projects should be that way
Thanks for the tutorial but can I also ask what was the name of this song/instrumental used throughout the video? EyefourStyle
I have a solution that will help you avoid this, use the clear spray that prevents stains and liquids from making them dirty.
Awesome video!! I was so scared to clean my white chucks haha.
I love the background music. What's the name of it please
Thanks! its called Synchronous Bloom by Thrupence. Search it up on sound cloud!
i did it today , my sneaker laces came out looking brand new.. just hoping my sneakers come out good.. :(
you have beautiful skin
Aww thanks I take my skincare very seriously!
did you put your laces in a dryer ? then
How long did you put the laces in for
man fuck that shit ima use the washer
Lool w/e makes you happy
ew.
+Macy M. lots of people do it tho...
MarronPlaysMC 😂😂 that's what I do just put them in a soccer bag and then washed them
VenomSF same😂
Is this only for white ones? I have light blue ones but idk if I can bleach them
It's only for white ones bc if you do this on your blue omfg then they will fade the color
Thank you for your tutorial. Greetings from Puerto Rico!
I have clear pair. how do I clean them.
I will clean colored ones with just the soap n brush and use magic eraser on the white part
+nubianqueen7810 Yepp good thought!
Oh now I know what to do after bleaching . I keep thinking why it turn yellow. So I need to wash with soap. Okay I will try that
I don't use bleach but what if you still get yellow on your shoes is there any way to take that off do y'all know
May I ask what camera do you use? & this video was amazing + the bloopers LOL!
lool Thanks!! I use the Nikon D3100
This is pretty cool.
What can I use if I don't have a magic eraser?
Thank you you r a life saver my converse look new now
how about yellow chucks
If you dont have like the powder can you just add more detergent ?
I'd say skip out on the extra detergent. Unless they're super dirty then go right ahead!
EyefourStyle thank you so much. 💕
cold water or hot water? I am watching this without sound. . . it looks like she is using a hose, so no hot/warm water?
thanx for the magic eraser tip! My cons are black tho so I had to disregard much of the vid but I stayed for the voice
***** You're welcome! and thanks! I never thought my voice was anything special but glad you liked it lool
Thank you
Baby wipes are fucking great for cleaning runners, my brother uses them all the time! Work great on converse the rubbery part.
Thanks! Very helpful.
This is the best method I’ve used! Thank you!
You’re welcome!! Means a lot 🤗
This did whiten my shoes a lot but I didn't rinse off all of the bleach so they turned a little yellow so I might do it again today.
+Bridget Sonobe hope the second time went well!
After u did it a second time, did it become white again? Or did it stay yellow
I never really understood why the shoelaces turned black everytime it happens smh
I wish I knew too mann 😒
***** lool good to know
Customgrrow420 Waddup Jolie Olieeeee WADDUP!
+CustomGrow420 when the shoelace rubs against the shoelace hole it gets it dirty from the rubbing against the material from the shoelace hole
jolie oliee mah nigga! stay high my man

Where do you buy a magic eraser?
This helps a lot :)
+HeyItzJenn you're welcome! I just get them from walmart
Sponges made from the identical material as the Magic Eraser are available online at spongeoutlet.com for as little as $0.29 per sponge and shipping is free! These are not cheap - potentially hazardous - Chinese knock-offs. They are the identical material and made right here in the United States!
this actually really works thank you!
Or you can just throw it in the machine with powder detergent and baking soda. Warm wash it and spin not dry. Air it out for hours and voila
Yess that works too!
This was so helpful thank you!
What about shoes and laces that aren't white?
Just follow the steps, without bleach so it doesn't mess up the color pattern.
Please do remember converse look nice 'grungy' as well.. AGREED haha!! helpful video, I always come back to this when mine need cleaning♡
Haha ya it depends on my mood if I wanna wear them freshly clean or beat up. So glad you use this method! Mine are def due for another clean
wait how did you dry your shoe laces?
I hung mine up in front of a fan, they dried within an hour.
MAJOR3058 hahahahahahahaaaha
MAJOR3058 Chill.
Dumb
MAJOR3058 how bout u shut that fat mouth of yours? Ur dumb. The video said don't air dry how was Lindsey supposed to know what else to do. Learn something in kindergarten sweetheart
I don't have time for this lol. I'm just gonna go get new ones.
gimme that
Krissy Taylor That's totally me...
Thanks so much this one helped so much
you're welcome! Glad you liked it!
This worked great! Thank you!! Shoes look brand new :)
You’re welcome 🤗
it turns them yellow , thanks alot !
Are those convers even real or are they fake
Does this method work on white vans???
+Allyspam e Yes it should! Once they are the cotton fabric on top and have the rubber rim sole like the converse.
What happen if your shoes are yellow from the bleach? Can you still come off ?
No they will stay yellow.... That's y it's not a good idea to use bleach to clean them in my opinion
Lol I already tried them, they actually came off 😳
+MoMo Jarvis hey, so u did this method a second time but u washed it with soap after bleach and its not yellow anymore?
Nice
Or you throw them in you washing machine on normal cycle and dry using cool air
i usually do this too except the washing machine is more tear on the shoes
What's the music you used for this video?!
Hey sorry for the late reply! Its called Synchronous Bloom by Thrupence. Search it up on sound cloud!
can i wash the converse in the washing machine?
ya but put them on delicate and also put other towels in so they dont get damaged by bouncing around
How did she dry them
a i r d r y
my dumb ass used acetone 😂😂
What happened to them?
Song name?
Why would you clean them? Yesterday i dumped dirt all over it to get mine dirty!
+Deenah Levin haha no way! I love my converse both ways, dirty and clean
+EyefourStyle 😝
won't bleach mess up the rubbber
Could you just put the Converse in the drier?
They'll kind of shrink or change shape . Better chance with air drying or a blow dryer lol
can i put them in the dryer
Yep
The lady in the sneaker store said the cloth should not be washed, only the laces or the bottom/rim (idk if that's right sorry). :/
I put mine in the washing machine all the time there fine just don't put them in the dryer bc the fabric may shrink?
oh yeah hahaha
I needed this
El cloralex los deja un poko amarillos
Thank you.
Another good product you can use is "awesome" spray
can i wash like ur my color blue converse pls reply asap
Just don't use bleach
+Hannah Michelle TY
what does the powder means ?
It's like the liquid detergent but it's in a powder form. 😊 Hope this helped!
Hey forget the haters great video it helped! And by the way you hve a awesome voice
Aww thank you ☺️
Thanks for sharing!!
+Kayleen Rogers No prob, thanks for watching!
What is powder plz respond
Hey, the powder is just a Tide powder laundry detergent. Doesn't really matter whether you use liquid/powder detergent or both.
thanks
Wait did she say we need... Bleach?
This is so helpful I don't have to put my converse in the wash machine
loved your commentary!! adorable!!!!
Every time I try to clean mine they turn yellow 🙄🙄🙄 I've already gotten new ones 5 times I think it's time I start buying black shoes
Kaley Raya DONT use bleach use baking soda and dish soap instead, the bleach will stain your shoes
i did that now they’re yellow😑
Can't you just wash them?
u can, i do it all the time. I had my first pair of them for 4 years and they were absolutely fine after washing them in the washing machine
Everyone: "You're gonna need Bleach" *silence*
Me: "You're gonna need Bleach" *dies of laughter*
When you say "powder"does baby powder count?
"converses"
?
Wait why don't you just put them In the wash
Once I made that with my marvel converse all the colors of it got washed up better to do it in this way.
there is a much easier way, baking soda, warm water, washing detergent and scrub them with a scrub brush, bleach isn't needed, buy new shoe strings for $2, throw your shoes in the washer and dryer at a laundromat and be done, they come out as good as new
+Derrick Smith Okk thanks for the tips
If you have black chucks remember if you soak them in water the color is going to go away
Why would you wash black converse?
