What You Need

  • Water-based liquid soap
  • A soft-bristled brush
  • White cloth
  • Water

Steps to Follow

  1. Begin by rubbing off any excess oil pastel from the affected area of your oxford using a soft-bristled brush.
  2. Apply a small amount of water-based liquid soap onto a damp, white cloth and use it to scrub the stain gently.
  3. Rinse the area with a damp cloth and water to completely remove the soap suds.
  4. Finally, dry your oxfords with a clean, dry cloth and admire the results!

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.
