Step 1: Brush Off Excess Mud

The first step in removing mud stains from your pumps is to brush off any excess mud and dirt. Use an old toothbrush or a stiff-bristled brush to gently scrub away the mud.

Step 2: Apply Stain Remover

Once you've brushed away excess mud, it's time to apply a stain remover. Put a few drops of stain remover on a cloth and gently rub it into the affected area. Be sure to use a gentle stain remover so you don't damage the material of your shoes.

Step 3: Rinse With Water

Once you've applied stain remover, rinse the pumps with warm water. This will remove any remaining stain remover and will also help to lift the mud stains from the fabric. Make sure to use a clean, damp cloth to avoid spreading the mud stain.

Step 4: Let Dry

After you've rinsed the pumps, let them dry completely before wearing them again. Be sure to keep them out of direct sunlight to avoid fading. Once your pumps are completely dry, they should be free of mud stains.
