Firstly, you need to remove the laces and put them to the side. Rinse the shoes in clean water.

Then, take an old, clean toothbrush and clean the trainers with The Pink Stuff paste.

Scrub in circular motions and make sure you get into the intricate details and sole of the shoe.

The TikToker then rinses the shoes with plain water again and uses ASDA Thick Bleach Pink Passion.

Scrub the shoes with the bleach using the same toothbrush and rinse them once more. Don’t worry if you get the inside wet.

To clean the laces, dunk them in some soapy water mixed with bleach, and rinse them out.

Dry off the shoes with a cloth and leave them to dry on the radiator, alongside the laces.

Another TikToker @cleanwithney used a similar method with a few differences, and the video racked up more than 281,000 likes.

She placed her dirty Air Force 1 shoelaces into a measuring jug with Fairy Non-Bio Stain Remover Powder, DriPak’s Bicarbonate of Soda, and some boiling water.

She let the mixture fizz for an unspecified amount of time, and in the meantime cleaned her shoes with The Pink Stuff paste.

Using the rough side of a regular sponge, she smeared the Pink Stuff paste on the shoes and scrubbed away the dirt.

Next, she rinsed away the product on the shoe with clean water and put, what appears to be, baking soda or washing powder inside the shoe.

Then, she places the shoes into the washing machine with laundry powder and fabric softener in the detergent drawer.

After the cycle is finished, she takes the laces out of the mixture in the measuring jug and rinses them in the sink.

The trainers can then be dried with a microfibre cloth and left to dry upside down on the radiator alongside the laces.
