Brilliant! Having a 2 different shoes to see what method is the best for each, in terms of cleaning. and to know the result for different kinds and type of shoes, great job! I can fully understand what I'm going to use to my leather and fabric shoes.
No, a chemical reaction makes the vinegar cause the baking soda to release carbon dioxide gas. This gas helps clean many things. A good example is washers, sinks, dish washers, sidewalks, etc.
When baking soda is mixed with vinegar, the acid breaks down baking soda, releasing carbon dioxide gas that can help lift dirt from the surfaces being cleaned.
Yes but it’s not alkalinity nor acidity that cleans your shoes. It’s the chemical gases released by the baking soda when it comes in contact with vinegar which cleans the shoes.

Never dry your white shoes in direct sunlight! Let them air dry in outside in the shade and also never put any type of leather shoes in the Dryer! Leather is a very delicate material after they are air dried put a good quality Leather conditioner cream that is formulated for white leather .
Toothpaste gave me really good results on leather shoes. I don't think it would work well on canvas just because when I used it on fabric (I showed it on the video) it didn't get rid of stains. As Chimith wrote, baking soda will do a better job.
I definetely don't get 3-4 hrs of direct sunlight in my place, if I let it dry overnight without direct sun would it be as effective? Thanks for the video, BTW!! Bought a great pair of used Adidas hi-tops but the fabric is stained & I bought them to flip dem!!
What do method do you recommend for shoes that doesn't have any leather part, or should i say, shoes that have fabric. And second question. Should i make sure first that my shoes are dry before i apply the method?
