Step 1: Soak the Flip Flops

First, you'll need to soak your flip flops in cold water and a mild detergent. Make sure the detergent you choose is designed to be gentle enough for use on delicate materials. Be sure to leave them soaking for at least 20 minutes so the stain has time to loosen up.

Step 2: Apply a Stain Remover

After the flip flops have been soaking, it's time to apply a specialized stain remover. There are several varieties available, but be careful to choose one that won't damage the fabric. Test it on a small area to make sure it doesn't fade or discolor the material before you apply it to the entire stain.

Step 3: Rinse Flip Flops

Once you've applied the stain remover, rinse the flip flops with cold water to remove any residual product. You may need to repeat this process a couple of times until all of the stain remover is gone. Don't worry if any of the stain remains, as this is normal.

Step 4: Air Dry Flip Flops

When flip flops are finished rinsing, let them air dry for at least a few hours. If you're in a rush, you can use a hairdryer set to the lowest temperature setting to speed up the process. Be sure to hold the hairdryer at least 6 inches away from the flip flops to avoid damaging them.

Conclusion

Getting soy sauce stains out of your flip flops doesn't have to be tricky. Just follow these four simple steps and your favorite summer shoes will be good as new!
