The Yeezy sneaker line from Kanye West and Adidas is one of the most popular shoe brands in the world. Sneaker fans all over the world love the shoes. If you bought Yeezy's, then you probably spent quite a lot of money on them. Of course you want your shoes to look clean and fresh for as long as possible. Fortunately, there are ways to protect your Yeezy's and keep them clean to keep them looking brand new.

To step

Method 1 of 3: Scrub your shoes with a brush

1. Remove the insoles and laces from your Yeezy's. Be extra careful not to damage the insoles when you take them out of the shoes. Also slowly pull the laces out of the shoes so that the lace holes do not wear out.
   • Set the insoles and laces aside so they don't get damaged while you clean the rest of your shoes.
2. Make a solution of water and vinegar. Put one part water and two parts white vinegar in a small cup and mix with a spoon. You can also use a special shoe cleaner instead of vinegar and water if you prefer.
   • You can buy special shoe cleaners online and at shoe stores.
3. Dip a stiff brush in the mixture and scrub the soles. The soles are by far the dirtiest part of any shoe, so you may have to scrub particularly hard to remove the dirt. Don't be afraid to scrub hard as the soles are very strong.
   • Do not treat the stitched seams with the brush.
   • You can use a cloth or rag if you don't have a stiff brush. However, you may not be able to clean your shoes very well with a cloth or rag.
   • Periodically dip your brush in the mixture to make sure you don't just rub the dirt into the sole of your shoe.
4. Wipe the soles with a damp cloth. When you have finished scrubbing the soles, soak a clean cloth with water. Scrub the soles thoroughly with the cloth to remove the dirt. Also wipe the sides to get them as clean as possible.
   • When cleaning the soles of your Yeezy's, don't forget to clean the Boost window. This is a triangular area on the soles of the shoes that can easily collect dust and dirt.
5. Scrub most of the shoes with a soft brush. All you need to do is dip your brush in water for this part of the process. Put your hand in the shoes to keep them in place. Then dip the brush in water and gently scrub the shoes from heel to toe area. Don't forget to regularly dip your brush in water to rinse it clean.
   • Avoid scrubbing the inside or spilling water into your shoes. By putting your hand in the shoes you should be able to protect them from water.
6. Let your Yeezy's dry in a cool place. Let them dry for a while after brushing. Place the shoes in a cool place with enough air circulation.
   • Do not place your Yeezy's near a heater, fireplace or other heat source, as the material of the shoes can melt from the heat.

Method 2 of 3: Cleaning the laces

1. Remove the laces from your Yeezy's. Use caution when removing the laces from your shoes so that you don't damage the plastic ends of the laces. Also make sure that the material does not fray. Gently pull the laces through the holes in the shoes.
   • If your laces are badly damaged or too dirty, you can buy new laces online or at a shoe store.
2. Make a mixture of five parts water and one part dish soap. You can use any kind of detergent. Pour the dish soap into a bowl and then fill the bowl with water. Make sure the detergent is dissolved before using the mixture.
3. Soak the laces in the mixture for 20 minutes. To ensure that the laces stay submerged, put a small cup on it. You can soak the laces in the mixture or you can run your fingers over the laces to remove any dirt and grit.
4. Scrub the laces with a soft brush after you soak them. Immerse the brush in a bowl of water. Slowly and gently scrub the laces with the brush, being careful not to fray the laces.
   • Be careful not to apply too much pressure with the brush, as this can damage the laces.
5. Let the laces air dry. After you've scrubbed the laces with your brush, let them air dry for a while. Do not put them near a heater or in the sun to dry as they will become rough and hard.
   • It is best to let the laces dry in a cool place.
6. Put the laces back on your Yeezy's. Be careful not to damage the eyelets and the plastic ends of the laces while lacing. When you lace up your Yeezy's, you can wear them again and they'll look brand new.

Method 3 of 3: Cleaning your Yeezy's in the washing machine

1. Remove the insoles and laces from your Yeezy's. Be careful when removing the laces and insoles as they can be easily damaged. Slowly remove the laces and put them together with the insoles in a safe place so that they cannot be damaged.
   • Make sure to remove the insoles from the shoes before putting them in the washing machine. The inside of the shoes dries better if the insoles are not in them.
2. Remove as much dust and dirt as possible from your Yeezy's. Of course you don't want dirt particles and other harmful materials getting into your washing machine while you wash your Yeezy's. First, wipe off any loose dirt with a damp cloth.
   • Wipe the soles and the triangular portion at the bottom of the soles to remove any visible dirt.
3. Put the shoes each in a separate pillowcase. Which color pillowcase you use depends on the color of your Yeezy's. Use white pillowcases if your Yeezy's are light in color and black pillowcases if your shoe is black or very dark in color.
   • You can tie a knot at the top of the pillowcases to keep your shoes from falling out.
4. Pour a small amount of detergent into the washing machine. Use about half the amount you normally use for a small load of laundry. You only wash a pair of shoes instead of a few kilos of laundry.
5. Set the washing machine to the coldest setting. Do not set the washing machine at a temperature higher than 30 ° C. A higher temperature will melt the glue and netting of your Yeezy's. The heat can also damage other parts of the shoes.
6. Let your shoes dry for 24 hours. Remove the pillowcases from the washing machine and take your shoes out of the pillowcases. Let the shoes dry for at least a day. Place them in a cool, well-ventilated place so that they can dry as well as possible. When your Yeezy's are dry, put the insoles and laces back on.
   • Your shoes are now ready to be worn again. Washing in the washing machine is less effective than using a brush to clean your shoes, but it will clean your shoes and look like new again.
