Steps to Follow
- Begin by rubbing off any excess oil pastel from the affected area of your oxford using a soft-bristled brush.
- Apply a small amount of water-based liquid soap onto a damp, white cloth and use it to scrub the stain gently.
- Rinse the area with a damp cloth and water to completely remove the soap suds.

Additional Tips for Removing Stains
- For stubborn stains, you can also use a mild shaving cream or dish soap as an alternative to water-based liquid soap.
- Try not to rub the stain with too much pressure as this can cause damage to the material of your oxfords.
- Make sure you do not apply any bleach directly onto your shoes. Bleach is strong and can ruin the color of your oxfords.
