How To Remove Bleach Stains From White Shoes
John Campbell
Keep in mind that depending on the shoe and the extent of the damage, you may not be able to completely remove the flaws.

This is what you’ll require:
A cup of boiling water
An out-of-date toothbrush.
1 tbsp of salt
A cereal or soup bowl.
The methods are as follows:
Fill a heat-safe basin halfway with hot water and set aside. The water should be extremely hot, but not to the point of boiling.
Add one tablespoon of salt to the mixture. Allow it to dissolve in the water by stirring it gently.
Soak your toothbrush in the solution and scrape the yellow stains off your shoes. As needed, re-saturate all bristles. Work in a clockwise direction with applying gentle force.
When the stains start to fade, stop scrubbing and let the fabric air dry for 20 minutes or until it feels dry to the touch.
Re-saturate the brush with water and scrub for several minutes, or until the stains are no longer visible. Then stop rubbing the shoes and let them air dry.
VINEGAR AND DETERGENT
If applicable, remove the shoelaces first. Then go right over to your sink and wipe down the sides as soon as possible.
Fill your sink with lukewarm water until it’s about one-third full.
Add 0.5 tablespoons of laundry detergent to the mixture. To make sure everything is well incorporated, give it a short stir.
Soak both pairs of shoes inside the sink for around 60 seconds.
Wet the bristles of your old toothbrush and clean the yellowing stains with it. Work in a brisk, circular motion until the yellow fades. Rep with the opposite shoe. Allow the other shoe to soak in the solution while you work on the first.
Transfer the shoes to the washing machine once the blemishes have vanished. Set it to a warm cycle with minimal agitation.
Fill the washer halfway with water, then add 0.5 cup white vinegar.
Take your shoes outside to dry once they’ve been washed. Finish by placing them on a towel in a well-ventilated area.
