I saw a lot of white sneakers and, in fact, all colors of sneakers, trainers, and tennis shoes seemed to be everywhere in different designs and materials, including some very nice low-profile looking ones that I was admiring on a woman walking up some stairs. Anyway, I just wanted to report back that I’m ordering the sneaker cleaner today and if and when I get a moment, I will show a before and after photo. Thank you, everyone, for your really kind comments. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-my-white-sneakers#post-2386618 Thu, 22 May 2025 15:46:05 +0000 Roberta 2386618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love hearing from you ON THE PLANE. That is some useful travel advice. I did not know of this brand, and will have a closer look at them.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-my-white-sneakers#post-2386590 Thu, 22 May 2025 04:30:26 +0000 Carla 2386590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I throw my sneakers in the washing machine with a load of towels. &nbsp;I just washed a pair of white sneakers that specifically said ‘do not wash in washing machine’ - and they came out looking brand new! &nbsp; </p> <p>FWIW, DH always decides he needs new shoes when we travel, and some of his faves have been purchased abroad.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-my-white-sneakers#post-2386589 Thu, 22 May 2025 03:32:21 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2386589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those look great!

I have a sneaker cleaning kit from Amazon. Highly recommended from the dudes in my town who keep their sneakers bright and clean. I must have spent $20...it has lasted. I would spend that money again. I think I have the Cozgo Sneaker Cleaning Kit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-my-white-sneakers#post-2386546 Wed, 21 May 2025 19:06:24 +0000 Suz 2386546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looking shoes, Vicki -- and hope you have a fab trip!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-my-white-sneakers#post-2386535 Wed, 21 May 2025 18:20:53 +0000 Vicki 2386535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is often said that one mustn’t buy new shoes before traveling on a trip. </p> <p>Yet that’s exactly what I did with these white APL Tech Bloom sneakers. I wanted a white pair and walked a few days before leaving in my somewhat-comfortable white leather Converse sneakers. But something told me these wouldn’t be a smart choice for the long haul. </p> <p>So, off I went to Nordstrom on Sunday afternoon and when I picked up these lightweight APL’s and then read the reviews on the spot, I was sold. I am a 7-1/2 or 8 and bought the 8-1/2 and they are perfect with my Balega Hidden Comfort socks. That’s another thing. I’m not sure if I’m getting more sensitive, but I really like soft socks on the “inside” of my socks and not anything textured or pebbled, but rather smooth. So, I’m always on the lookout for socks like these. When I get home, I’ll have to search for ways to clean my white sneakers, which are still pretty clean. I think Magic Eraser is good for the soles but not the fabric and using a solution of detergent, baking soda and vinegar is likely a recommended cleaner, according to ChatGPT. I highly recommend these featherweight trainers. (Written on the plane.) </p>
