how to wash shoe laces

 

The best way to wash shoe laces is by soaking them in a mild detergent in the sink with warm water. You also might need to scrub gently with your hands, as this will remove any dirt and create a clean surface for the soap to stick. After a few minutes of soaking, rinse with cold water and let them dry before putting them back on your shoes.

Alternatively, many people choose to use baby shampoo or another mild cleanser rather than dish soap which can strip away some of the protective oils that are already there; because shoe laces are much smaller than most dishes they take less time to dry out after being washed.

TIP: It's easiest to attach a new lace to the shoe before putting it on. For shoes with Velcro fastenings, they often have a hole at the back of the tongue that you can thread through before putting on your shoe. For shoes with laces, you can use scissors to cut off the old end of your laces and then insert the new end through their corresponding holes.

When you're buying new laces for your favorite pair of shoes, be sure to choose ones made from more durable materials like nylon or polyester. This may cost more but will give your shoes a longer lifetime that'll save money in replacing them much more often than if you had chosen thinner materials.
