Cleaning Secrets: Running Shoes! (How to Get Your Shoes Cleaner, Whiter & Brighter!) Clean My Space

[@lucydavil2390]

THIS VIDEO CHANGED MY LIFE IT'S LITERALLY ONE OF MY FAVE VIDS ON KZbin!

[@nicolecoleman4070]

Your videos are awesome. I have 3 kids and they take all my energy so I never want to clean but you have inspired me to clean more often. Thank you :)

[@hayleydavis1763]

Another quick tip I would like to share - You can actually get rid of that nasty foot odor by stuffing thie insides of your shoe with balled up newspaper. Then you leave the shoes outside for 1-2 hours. The only side affect of this is that your shoes might smell like the local newspaper stand. Depending on whether you like the smell of newspaper, this might be a good trick for you to try. This works with all shoes, very convenient if you ask me. I hope this comes in handy for you. Thank you again for all of your marvelous help that you have provided for your many viewers!

Any tips on cleaning white doors or white appliances that are turning yellow from age?

[@vegancaliou4913]

[@noofh9618]

I also have the same issue with my white leather handbags. Do u have any tips for that and things that would be safe to use on leather ?

[@cuteek]

Thanks for this, I usually just throw mine in the washing machine! How should I clean my suede running shoes?

[@clearingclutterforclarity1508]

This will come in real handy in the near future. Thank you for taking the time to make the video!

[@coconutgirlx3]

0:54 what shoes are you holding? just wondering because I think I have the same ones! btw thank you for this video!

[@trangcampbell5195]

How would you recommend washing your workout gloves (made of a very light foam material - like the brand G-Loves) to remove the smell of sweat that builds up on them?

[@IRunThings]

I have a video about cleaning my shoes on my channel as well. It's completely different to this one though!

[@teresah5318]

I usually buy white walking shoes. I throw them in the washer and let them air dry. I take the laces out and hand was those. Since I live in Arizona, leaving them outside for quick dry works! But now I have colored walking shoes and will give your advice a try!! Thanks!!!

[@amyweinstein1740]

I love your videos. Did my sock drawer omg what a difference. I now see what I have.

[@nirejohnson]

I haven't noticed the runners trend with a nice outfit. But i would totally do that!

[@elin9467]

Can you do a how to clean converse and vans?

[@alicenirvana]

By any chance could you make a cleaning schedule video? Something for daily/weekly/monthly maintenance to keep a house looking great, including the average amount of time you have to spend to maintain the cleanliness.

[@JamesDizon]

Best shoe cleaning video on YT i've found.

[@English_withwesam35]

Does the equal parts baking soda and detergent work for colored fabric shoes? And can I substitute liquid detergent for powdered? Thank you Melissa 💜

[@tammyclark1585]

OMG!!! I finally made it to the end of all of your CMS videos. Thanks for all the tips and tricks. I've learned SO much! I've wanted to comment on the other videos but wondered if you guys go back and read new comments on old videos. While I have had small questions along the way, the one that I am most curious about is a vacuum. Have you ever tried the Rainbow Vacuum?

[@Pinki2019]

I've just been throwing my athletic shoes in the washing machine. Which works okay, but by the time I do that the shoes are usually worn out enough that I'm not too concerned for them anymore, just trying to keep them decent looking as a back-up pair. I will try your tips for sure.

[@MMW844]

Thank you for the information. By the way the music is loud and competes with you. Keep up the good work.

[@FortheLoveofOrganizing]

You are simply the best! I always learn so much from your videos. Thank you!

[@heathermartin82]

Me too.. She's my GO TO LaDY!

[@nanc6987]

Ah ha!!! My 4 year old just got a NEW pair of white sole sneakers and he LOVES to wear them to the baseball field. When he comes home ..... his shoes aren't white any more ..... but I now have a secret cleaning weapon! Thanks Melissa .... and my son's favourite sneakers thank you too.

[@evelyn07881]

Very nice video, love all of your videos. Honestly this is a great channel and you guys do a great job. As for your question Melissa I personally like running sneakers for gym wear or for a casual laid back outfit.

[@kgbn1]

Apparently acetone is very good at cleaning the white rubber sole! I love the sneaker trend. Gives me an excuse to get comfy! I'm normally always in high heels and sneaker wedges in particular are such a godsend lol it's like a gateway drug for me into sneaker world.

[@susang1287]

My poor running shoes... this will liven them up, thanks! ps - Random question, my DC59 attachments have those little red strips on the attachments to help pick up pet hair, lint, etc. How to get those clean? Just pulling the lint/ pet hair off like on a hairbrush doesn't seem to remove to much. I have searched and searched the internet to no avail.... :)

[@lhallissey]

I practically live in my runners. So comfortable! Defo gonna try these tips out. Thanks cms. Awesome as always 😃

[@MsSusieStone]

I throw my Skechers in a delicates bag and wash it on the delicates cycle in the washing machine. I also dry them in the delicates bag afterwards by simply hanging them in and closing the door of the dryer by holding a bit out so they‘re hanging on the inside of the door. No annoying tumble noise too 😊 I‘m doing this for years with my and my boyfriend’s Skechers/sneakers and we never have smelly shoes or feet 😉

[@dithareddy1565]

I love your humour and your jokes Melissa, it makes me laugh and uplifts my mood 🤗 Thank you for making the cleaning world a better place, for making something deemed a chore and boring, you make it fun and enjoyable 😘 Lots of Love 💜💛

[@daniellegrazianistone4632]

Since I live in Florida wearing any form of tennis shoes, etc. is very hot and sweaty! Flip Flops are the way we go!

[@kimberlypark2807]

HI I love your videos. Thank you for sharing all of your method and ideas. Cheers

[@mervealper5746]

Hi Melissa, Thank you for giving all those helpful tips. Can you also make a video on how to clean hand bags of different materials, please? I am afraid to do something wrong to my Tommy bags since they are so expensive for a student here in Turkey. Thank you so much.

[@sirrobertdaniels9562]

Any advice on cleaning the interior of a big rig 18 wheeler? Just found your channel!

[@alanunderwoodsr8622]

Use Blue Dawn dish washing liquid. It cleans oil and oily stains the best. Rinse with water.

[@anniebanany5189]

Dear Melissa, How often and which method should I use to clean my purse? I use it everyday when I go out and I get so OCD whenever I have to bring it back into my clean room. Also this is going to sound weird, but do we have to clean our washer after a while, I mean we put so many dirty items in there, it makes sense that it needs to be cleaned out every once in a while...right?

[@elizabethdecicco6450]

Love you video's and you openness. I have stains on my car seats (seat pad tan in color). The seat base has mesh like covering . I know not to use to much liquid as the seat will not dry quickly. Do you have any suggestions on how to clean it?

[@cleanmyspace]

+Elizabeth Decicco You're in luck! We just released our Car Cleaning Video! Please watch it at this link and let us know what you think! bit.ly/CarCleaningVideo

[@elizabethdecicco6450]

Already watched this afternoon. Well done and glad it did not give you two heat stroke. Keep up the good work you two.

[@DrunkenWyvern]

How timely! I just made a mess of my shoes in a Color Run, and was wondering what to do about the dusty color-full (and colorful) uppers!

[@elihauser1840]

My friends just went to that. Was it in sf/bay area?

[@DrunkenWyvern]

eli hauser I wish! It was in beautiful downtown Baltimore, near the Orioles' and Ravens' stadiums. Big fun!

[@elihauser1840]

Nancy Carney oh, haha. i guess they do they do a bunch all on the same day.

[@noshville4888]

Discovered Liquid soap used for and in a "dishwasher" . I use it for tubs occasionally too. In the tub, I cover my flip flops, or bottom of tennis shoes with liquid dishwasher gel and walk away! Come back later and rinse. Scrub with nail brush if needed. Oh yeah.

[@KeepCalmAndDreamOn01]

Amazing video, now I know how to clean all of my sneakers! But I have a problem.. you know Nike Air Force, right? I have had them for a while and (even though the actual leather can be easely cleaned with the actual shoe cleaner they sold me at the shoes shop) the sewings still stay really dirty, and I even tried to put them in the washing machine but it doesn't work! How can I clean them? thanks x

[@marysummers]

Weren't you going to come out with your own microfiber cloths? I need to buy some, but I wanted to wait for yours. Are they still coming out? Are they going to be available in the US?

[@cleanmyspace]

Mary Summers We are coming out with them - SOON! There was an issue with my supplier which made me super annoyed, especially since I shared the news with you guys. That said we should be over the hump VERY soon with all of this and have those cloths ready to go! Thanks for asking!

[@kierrahouston5412]

These cleaning hacks are amazing definitely gonna try out the eraser and baking soda hack

[@tomilyngarot2807]

Hi amazing Melissa! I was thinking of you when we were camping. How about a segment about cleaning camping cookware and equipment? :)

[@Athenalovexoxo]

Omg awesome video it's like u read my mind lol I am currently dealing with this for all my boys shoes lol :) extremely useful I can't wait to try this :) I think it might look silly to wear runners with a nice outfit but I guess it depends on the outfit and the shoes but for me personally it doesn't matter what it looks like :) I'm the one doing all the walking and I worry more of comfort than fashion :)

[@GoldenPuppy1O11]

Hi Melissa! Do you know what the name of the black nike running shoes you showed in this video are called? Thank you :)

[@melissarodriguez3206]

Thank you for the cleaning video! Great job! Myself I also cannot fathom wtf some designer was thinking when they decided to make white shoe soles a thing! Smh. But about wearing athletic shoes, everyone should do what makes them feel good. I'm super thankful that many employers these days allow athletic or semi-athletic shoes to be worn for work (back before covid) with exception of certain situations. I say this because I have put on a lot of extra weight so I need the support, plus even when I was smaller, I was SO clumsy! Haha I dont know how many times I have twisted my ankle for very little reason. Until my early 20s I would wear heels often, but on the Valentine's day right after I got married, we had gone out to lunch, and on returning home, I stepped off the driveway partially in my platforms and twisted the...mess...out if my ankle. I survived, haha, But we spent the afternoon in the ER (I was convinced it was broken!), I was SUPER embarrassed, and I have yet to live that down by the way! I gave away all my heeled shoes and have worn flats ever since. Ok so thanks for the video, and wear what you love! Dont worry about me over here in my flats! Lol

[@n2myfamily]

Thank you! I am an ebay seller and will be using these cleaning tricks.

[@RM-yn1lb]

U r amazing... I use wipes for cleaning all types of shoes and it works like magic in 5 mins

[@nikeshorty9231]

I personally wear running shoes with nice outfits to school

[@gamerlife3990]

me too :)

[@jazzminpotter5014]

Yesss dude

[@eddyvideostar]

To Nike: If you are a female and wear nice outfits like a dress or skirt, then wear shiny dress shoes.

[@battistimo]

How do you protect your brand new shoes to begin with? Do you have any videos on that?

[@ThickCut49]

Don't wear them.

[@baljindersinghtheboss]

crep spray

[@Sara-jc4xw]

Uhh, I wouldn't care about whatcha wear. ❤️ but cleaning question/idea for back to school times, how do i clean my pencil bags?

[@1et3thebest]

Thanks a lot for the tip. I totally agree with you. I wear constantly running shoes with casual outfit and keep it totally normal. Greetings from Croatia :D

[@bonitabanks1236]

Haven't been able to do the runners with dressy stuff!

[@spivelj]

How can you clean velvet or suede slippers? I have mud on a pair of mine and am afraid to clean them. I guess either way they are ruined?

[@solideogloria7987]

This did work temporary for me, but it seemed like the dirt just sunk into the next layer of fabric. Even if i even got a small drop of water on my shoe it would make the dirt rise to the top a little and you could see a obvious spot. So this does work just if you can hand wash your shoes do, it works better.

[@KewlCreations]

Ok CMS I have a question for you! At work I sit in a shared space and next to me are 3 co workers who smoke! The lingering smell Is starting to become unbearable, I can't ask them not to smoke and moving my seat Is not an option, So what I can do to cut down the oder of this stale cigarette stench ?

[@Faudihac]

What to use instead of baking soda? need my shoes for the fieldtrip..

[@lailaheldal6036]

I would like to know how to clean the inside of my bags. The inner fabric, especially on the bottom collects dirt. I have a expensive bag with light inner fabric and I don't know how to keep et nice and pretty.

[@emmamaples7517]

You're really rockin' that bun!!!

[@audrey2601]

Hello if I have a stain on the fabric of my sneaker that detergent isn't working what else can i try??

[@nicolestaples5227]

Love this channel! You can learn to clean everything!

[@cleanmyspace]

Nicole Gimlen That's the goal!

[@lilyr6755]

Oooh. I hope I can find a square chalk like that. That was cool. I will clean the sneakers then carry that to keep them for top since bottoms will be on dirty ground. If it was car to door at a club or pm a as I may go on errands it'd be okay, but since I go by bus I walk all over big dirty city outside dirt. Dressed up with sneaker etc is silly, but you have to do what you have to do. A dressy flat or dressy looking foot clots won't help for long time walking outside, etc. Is only temp.

[@MinvlyMusic]

I love this video!!!!!

[@helenheil]

Awesome suggestions! Thanks.

[@debiluv64]

Great Video, thank's for sharing!

[@planetlexicon]

Is the foot powder just baking soda?

[@sabrinafare7049]

I live and work in New York City and many people who commute to work here wear sneakers with their work clothes. I do it myself. When you have to run to catch a bus or train it really helps to have sneakers on.

[@yvetteyasui]

Hello Melissa, My request is for another cleaning video, would you consider doing a How to Clean Strollers and carseats? There are so many ways a stroller can get dirty, the tires and wheels, the seat and fabric hood, the straps and buckles, crumbs, food spills, sticky fingers and the dirt and grime of being out and about in the city streets. PS: I live in NYC so my stroller is basically like my car (we don't have a car) and we take the stroller absolutely everywhere, every single day and it gets pretty gross. I noticed a friend who has the same exact stroller as I do, but hers was looking brand new and she has two kids. When I mentioned how clean and nice her stroller looked she said "Yes, I like to keep it clean" and it's just one of those things, cleaning the stroller never occurred to me before. Big Duh! Of course you have to clean it! There are no magical stroller cleaning fairies (are there?). Thanks melissa, love your channel!

[@steeleeuk]

I've got 2 kids (thankfully older now) but I'm the same. It wasn't till my 2nd was sick in hers that I had to discover how to remove all the fabric to wash it. I ended up putting it in the machine on a hand wash cycle. After that it never fitted quite right. But anyway, it's weird how properly cleaning it had never entered my head.

[@cleanmyspace]

HELP!!!! How can I get oil stains off of white leather shoes? Ive tried everything I can think of from magic eraser to bleach. Nothing has helped the brownish stain is still there. Its motor oil that sprayed out my husband's truck exhaust. Is there any hope?

[@sambourke9407]

Hi Melissa, great tips! Will definitely try those out! I know this is a random question, but how would you recommend getting rid of fruit flies and keeping them away? Thanks, Sam :)

[@jozina1]

Use a bottle or a glass jar with ceram wrap over it (make small holes in it with a toothpick) and put some wine or apple cider vinegar in it. They'll crawl in the bottle or the wholes in the ceram wrap, but wont be able to get out again. You could also make holes in the old lid of the glass jar. Really works at our place.

[@sambourke9407]

jozina1 Thank you so much! I'll be sure to try that

[@jozina1]

Sam Bourke Oh I forgot to mention! Put a few drops (very small amount) of dish-soap into the apple cider vinegar or wine. This will make them sink to the bottom of the jar. It works better that way.

[@chiquitalatinafun]

Just the info I needed!

BE the Change ! not sure what kind of material you're referring to, but I have found soaking things overnight in white vinegar can remove even the strongest smells!

[@roseladd6402]

🆒 DIY for clean shoes!! I am for matching shoes to the outfit! If you where running shoes the clothes should match and if you are dressing up I feel shoes should match the dress up. If you are doing a sport then running shoes fit the fashion!

So am I the only one watching "Clean My Space" old enough to remember when we wore our running shoes to commute with our nice business suits back in the 80's? I think we should try it again (minus the suits) now since some of us who did that are having a few joint twinges.
