I dont know why people watch and simply complain, if you dont want to hear the music, mute Or lower your volume. Theres so much Karen in this work ughhhh common sense people
@@iamdee2615 It’s just an opinion. Nobody is demanding the person who uploaded the video do anything. Pretty sure it’s not an uncommon thing for people to hate this kind of royalty free music.
i just bought a pair same as yours the florida birks, unfortunately after 3 times of cleaning it, My birks never return to its khaki color soft bed, and in fact its not even one year I just bought it a month :(
I wonder if Borax would work in place of powdered detergent? I’ve used dawn dish soap and a toothbrush before and had good results. Never used baking soda though. I will try Borax and baking soda on an old pair that’s falling apart first and see what happens. I’ll update.
How many times did you have to do that procedure to get to the end result at the end of your video? Also, does this work on the softbed? It looks like that may have been the softbed but not sure.
They have to dry for a few days so it might look darker for a while and you wouldn’t want to wet them too much so mood and bacteria don’t grow. Maybe clean them once, let it dry for a few days and see if it needs another cleaning
You shouldn’t wait long, having this much liquid/moisture on the footbed can ruin them. The baking soda mixture should resemble more of a PASTE than what she shows in the video.
I cleaned them but it’s been over a month and they are still really dark is there anything I can do to fix them? I cleaned them multiple times and I’m scared I ruined them
@@kirstenhulings3122 We have the same problem, felt bad i JUST bought it a month and clean every 2 weeks, looked like my birks are worn out for over 3 years lol
Omg I ruined my shoes. I didn’t have powder detergent so I used liquid. Something happened because it doesn’t matter how much I rinse or scrub these things are slimy AF. I just had some light staining before and now I gotta but new ones 😩
oh man, sorry that happened but I'm glad you posted the comment! I was just planning to use liquid Tide... are you sure you can't hose them off with a pressure sprayer and get it off?
@@angelrosee73 I’m glad you haven’t gone through with it yet!! Maybe try it on just a little spot first. I did the whole sole immediately. Initially I tried just rinsing a lot and then I was worried it maybe was the lack of water pressure so I went outside to use the hose, no dice. Then I went back in and tried to use dish soap which didn’t work, then a degreaser spray, and last I did white distilled vinegar. The slime isn’t going away. I don’t know if it is the detergent still in there. Part of me wonders if it is the glue compounds used to adhere the sole to the cork base. Anyway I am now letting them dry to see if I can restart tomorrow.
@@ruthnajera6873 I think there’s a difference between liquid soap and liquid detergent when reacting to the soles. Can’t say for sure but wanted to post a fair warning!
I have to say these are some of the nastiest shoes LOL. I love them they are comfortable but seem to get so dirty. I just wear them for walking the dog.
I don’t know what kind of foolery is going on here, but those were some nasty a**footbeds that definitely needed to be wiped more than the times shown. The steps done off camera…😒 can’t imagine the shoes coming out that good without some additional cleaning.
Stfu I bought mine 3 months ago and I should be obligated to clean them, I will never be buying from this brand ever again, waste of money! Stains my feet for weeks
I have and mine came out great. My mixture was much more paste like than runny. I think her method was a little too wet. I have also used furniture shampoo in a can.
I can't believe that you tell people to wipe off with wet wipes. Those stupid things just get thrown away & end up in landfill. Why not just a damp rag that you can use again & again? Unveliveablehow people just don't think.
