How to make yellowed sports shoes white?

We can buy some lead powder in the store and brush it on immediately after we wash our shoes. Then wrap the shoes with white paper towels and finally put them in the sun to dry, but do not expose them to direct sunlight at this time. Of course, we can also put the shoes in diluted blue ink, take them out after ten minutes and dry them. This method has the same effect as above, but when drying sneakers, you also need to wrap the wet shoes with toilet paper. It is best to do this every time you dry the shoes. So we see that the shoes become white, but the paper becomes yellow.

There is white shoe powder on the market now, you can buy some. After we wash the shoes, apply white shoe powder on them, then cover them with toilet paper and dry them. If you can't buy white shoe powder at the moment, you can use the alkali on the wall of a kettle as a substitute. That is, we drain the alkali and grind it into fine powder, and apply it on the clean shoe surface, so that the shoes can be as white as new.

There is another way to solve the yellowing of shoe edges: wipe your shoes with boiling water mixed with glutinous rice water and lemon juice. When the glutinous rice water and lemon juice are boiled, we can wipe the edges of the shoes with a rag or soft-bristled brush, which is also very effective. Another way to get a shoe refurbishment is to go to a specialized shoe chain store.

Our new shoes need daily care. When shoes get dirty, they need to be cleaned immediately to prevent oil stains and water droplets from reacting with the material of the upper and causing the upper to deteriorate. Some friends like to soak for a while before washing, so it is recommended that you do not soak for too long (up to 20 minutes). At the same time, do not use a hard brush or use excessive force to scrub the edges and corners of the printed patterns when washing sports shoes. You can use the washing machine to spin dry after washing.

We should not wear sports shoes in abnormal conditions such as rainy days, snowy days, and on asphalt courts (commonly known as outfields) and roads exposed to the sun. Of course, when normal wear and tear is inevitable, you should change shoes frequently and not always wear the same type of shoes. This way, the shoes have a "buffer period" and their service life will be longer. In addition, we should not use sneakers equipped with external air cushions in an overly cold environment.
