I can't stand having dirty sneakers. I used to use white shoe polish but it smells, takes a while to dry and can stain. I've found that using a Mr. Clean magic erase block (or similar store brand erase block) works wonderful at whitening even the oldest dingy sneakers. I tried using bleach on one shoe and the erase block on the other and I was surprised to find the shoe I used the erase block on looked much better.

A great way to clean canvas sneakers is to lay them on an old towel on top of the washer. Spray them with foamy carpet cleaner (you can get it for $1 at the dollar store) inside and out.
Clean canvas shoes with rug shampoo. Use a toothbrush to get into tight places and around trim.

I have a pair of white canvas shoes. What would be the best way to clean them in order to remove all the dirt? Would they be safe in the washing machine ?
How do I remove a clay mud stain from my white shoes? My brother was wearing them and got them dirty. The shoes are "Rabens."
Does anyone have any ideas for how I can clean a pair of beige colored canvas espadrilles?
