Cotton can be used to make a wide variety of shoes, which come in all kinds of shapes and designs. One of the biggest advantages of buying cotton fabric shoes is how low maintenance they are.
There are also cotton-padded shoes that are designed to be super comfortable, which makes cotton one of the most common materials you’ll see in shoes.

Cotton Shoe Care Tips
Keep your shoes clean and free of dust with these tips on cotton shoe care.
No matter what kind of shoes they are, cotton-based shoes will be easy to care for and maintain. Here are a few steps you can take to ensure they’re always clean.
1. Always clean your cotton shoes by hand using warm water, dishwashing detergent, paper towels, and an old toothbrush.
2. Start by wiping down your shoes using a dry paper towel and removing any loose soil.
3. Mix two cups of warm water with one teaspoon of dishwashing liquid inside a small bowl.
4. Working in sections, dip the toothbrush to get some of the soap solution and gently scrub on the cotton shoes.
5. Be sure not to over-wet your shoe and work with the grain of the fabric while moving throughout the shoe to prevent spotting and to keep a consistent color on your shoes.
6. Use paper towels and a bit of water to rinse your shoes and remove soapy residue.
7. Set the shoes aside and allow them to air dry in a shady area, away from direct sunlight and heat.
Don’t believe the so-called “hacks” you see online — tossing your cotton shoes in the washer is a bad idea. These wash cycles can be aggressive, where the tumbler combined with the impact of moving water can tear or warp your cotton shoes. It can also be tempting to throw your shoes in the dryer for a quick drying process, but the high heat of the machine can melt any rubber or plastic components of the shoes and can shrink or warp other parts, like the insoles.

How do I clean white cotton shoes?
No matter what you do, don’t wash your cotton shoes in your washing machine. Instead, opt to hand wash them using warm water, dishwashing detergent, paper towels, and an old toothbrush. Be sure to take your time and work gently to keep your shoes as nice as possible.
Rushing through the process could lead to bleeding in different sections and may also lead to spotting. Don’t directly wet your shoes with water—instead, rinse your shoes using damp paper towels. You can then set them aside to dry away from direct sunlight.
