in Old style MoneySaving
Hallo to you all,

I have a lovely pair of slip on sandels but the insoles really need cleaning up , as they are deeply stained with sweat, grime etc.
What can I use to clean them up so they are wearable outside the house?
Thanks in advance,
Anna

    Hiya,

    I had a pair of cloth wedges and the insole was minging - i cleaned them with the wipes you would use for the bathroom - they came up really well!! :D you could also try putting them in the washing machine in a pillowcase if you think they would survive it - if you are going to end up binning them anyway you may as well try it!!

    I've got a pair of old faithful sandals and I always clean the insoles with baby wipes (value ones of course!)
    :)Do more of what makes you happy:)

    I will try the wipes, although I will have to buy them when next out and about !
    Much appreciated,
    Anna
