Cleaning Tennis Shoes (and bonus bathtub cleaning tip)

May 6, 2009 By Michelle Barneck 6 Comments

You know how your kids tennis shoes are nice and white and then all of the sudden they are all gray and look like they have been wearing them for years when really it has been three days. Well let me let you in on a little secret. Ok, so it’s not that secret, but I just recently discovered the trick to getting those shoes white again in a snap. Literally, like a minute.


See, left shoe clean. Right shoe not so clean.

The secret? MaGic EraSeRs. They work wonders on yours walls (crayon, shoe scuffs, you name it) and shoes! I actually cleaned these with some fakers I picked up at the Dollar store to try. Just get the erasers wet and wipe off all that dirty crud. I think the dollar store erasers wear away a bit faster than the real Magic Erasers, but with the price difference it is still a good deal.

My mom also said the Magic Erasers work wonders on the bathtub! She used another brand of the dollar store version. I have not tried this one yet, but plan to soon!

What do you use your Magic Erasers for?
