Anyone has anyway to remove chewing gum totally and effectively from shoes' soles when one step on it? Any special chemicals needed?
How to remove chewing gum from shoes?
WD-40 works fantastic. It will take it all off quickly.
Reply:hairspray
Reply:freeze it in the freezer or with an ice cube, it will come right off.
Reply:I've heard of peanut butter, ( what a yucky mess, but it breaks it down) and, ice (makes the gum hard, and you chip it off)
Reply:Rub the gum with an ice cube until it "freezes" and then peel it off.
OR
Use Goo-Gone
Reply:Look at this product it works really well.
Reply:Put it in the freezer and allow the gum to freeze. Remove the frozen gum with a butter knife edge. If any residue is left, use any oil based product from your kitchen like mayo, peanut butter, butter, and or oil to rub the residue off, wipe clean!
Reply:ice
peanut butter
these two get gum out of hair as well
Reply:no - stick them in a plastic bag and then in the freezer the gum will freeze and you can just chip it off
sounds gross so dont forget the plastic bag!
Reply:Put the shoe in the freezer. Once the gum hardens (in a couple of hours) then peel it off the shoe.
Just make sure to put the shoe in a plastic bag so it soesn't stink up the food.
Reply:Put the shoe in a plastic bag and put it in the freezer. Once the gum is frozen it will pop off.

What kind of shoe polish do you use for patent leather shoes?
is there a special polish or will normal black shoe polish do the job?
What kind of shoe polish do you use for patent leather shoes?
nope you can't get a polish that why i stopped buying them ,oh if they just dirty just rub with a clean cloth or baby wipes are good .
Reply:Vaseline is marvelous for patent shoes..It is so greasy it keeps the shoes soft and crack free....smear some on and leave overnight then rub off with a soft cloth...You can buy Vaseline in England but if you are from the States or somewhere else I wouldn't know if you can purchase it elsewhere...
Reply:There are only two simple steps to care for patent leather: cleaning and shining.
Cleaning is easily done with a mild soap and a wet cloth or ideally using AQUILA (Urad's gentle leather cleaner).
Some advantages of using AQUILA are to prevent the side effects of chlorine and minerals contained in water and to dissolve any dirt or grease accumulations. This should be done after each use; otherwise this dirt starts attacking the varnish, eventually reducing its shiny finish. At the very least dust should be removed with a dry, but very soft cloth (chamois or shoe shine cloth).
Cleaning the leather as above will go a long way in keeping your patent leather shiny. But applying VERNICE will go the extra mile! This will give it the “red carpet” glow!
VERNICE (pronounced VERNI-TCHEI) can be applied with a soft cloth. Spray and spread the VERNICE evenly and leave to dry. It dries in only a few seconds and there's no need for buffing.
VERNICE is liquid silicon that protects and shines. Another benefit, especially for dance shoes, it lubricates leather and helps prevent scuffs marks and scratches. It will not stay greasy so it can also be used on purses, belts etc..
Do not use grease or Vaseline!!
Reply:the traditional sort that comes in a little tin that you rub on with a cloth and, er, polish to a shine. The elbow-grease kind, in other words.
Reply:you dont the wax will dull the shine, a wipe with a damp cloth or a duster and a squirt of pledge will do fine if they are really mucky.
Reply:gloss paint-as there is no polish for patent shoes.
Reply:um, i dont htink you need polish. just wipe them with a kleenex because they are smooth and shiny already.
Reply:Mr. Sheen or any other general purpose spray polish will do the trick and use a soft duster or old T-shirt to polish them with and buff them up to the high shine you require.
Reply:patent shoes dont have polishes, they cannot be polished over. Your best bet is a gloss nail varnish, this is what I use.
Reply:Vaseline work's just put on then rub off protect's too.

Shoes for skateboarding?
I mean, are there any model that is special for skateboarding?
What's the name of sports shoes (any sport shoe) that goes a bit higher to protect the ankle? I need the name is english
Shoes for skateboarding?
high tops
Reply:um, there are 1000's of skate shoes that are jsut for skatebaording...that's why they are called skate shoes. Lots of brands have a high top style shoe to protect your ankles more if thats what you're looking for, nike, emerica, and maybe even a couple others, i've never not you can sprain or break your ankle in any shoe so either kind so it won't matter much. I like fallen shoes specifically the fallen patriot shoe, I'm currently using nike sb and they're super comfortable and so far they're holding up good so i'd say durable and light. Skate shoes are trial and error you'll really need to find what works best for you because we all skate differently and our shoes will wear differently. I also like vans, dvs, es, emerica, and adio.

Buying shoes?
Well im looking for a couple of pair of new shoes because the ones i have right now are terrible shape and i have some special events coming up so i need some new shoes.
Is there a website/store where i can get running/basketball/casual shoes for cheap prices, or maybe even wholesale deals/prices. I dont really want to buy shoes off of ebay because most of them have been worn before, and plus ebay has good shoes, but not always in the size i need.
Ok thank$

How do u clean shoes?
do u just stick em in tha washer and dryer? or is there some sort of special way?? and im NOT talking bout leather shoes or anything, just like adidas or nikes
How do u clean shoes?
Take out the laces and put them in the washer DO NOT put them in the dryer to dry. Put them out in front of a fan or window.
Reply:remember they will make alot of noise to, and remember to tie the laces together or you can lose them. Take out the insole to if you can, it gets nasty when wet.
Reply:If they're mostly synthetic or leather, I'd use a leather shampoo for sports/tennis shoes, usually obtainable cheaply at a Walmart. If they're canvas, then get an upholstery cleaner -- usually the kind for cleaning the interior of a car, in a can with a scrub-brush top, works fine.
I've been known to take a handled nylon cleaning brush and put shoes in the tub and scrub them with detergent and hot water. And then leave them to dry outside. But the results vary.
I doubt you'd find me washing grungy tennis shoes with my towels and washcloths in the washer, though.
Reply:I usually just throw them in the wash with some towels and old clothes in warm water and soap. When you put them in the dryer makes sure to put a lot of clothes in it so that it doesn't make a huge banging sound when the shoes are going around.
Reply:I put my sneakers in the washer and dryer. It works. I don't think there's a special way.. ?
If they are more fancyful shoes. I just wipe them with water and a washcloth.
Reply:if they're sneakers, they can go in the washer...don't put clothes with them.
Reply:dryel...it's a cleaner for the dryer...it's great
Reply:SHOE CLEANER!
Reply:well puting them in the washer does not work to well.
get some stain remover and get a wet cloth and wipe the shoe. or get one of those scrub brushes.
Reply:put them in the washer but dont put them in the dryer

What kind of shoes should i wear with this?
put all thre of these on your creen at the same time - i was gonna suggest flats - but it could work out with heels -
purse - http://www.ebags.com/shiraleah/silk_clut...
shoes - http://cgi.ebay.com/SEXY-UNIQUE-LIGHT-GR...
i would suggest either a metal tome bracelet - and earrings - or costume jewlery - imitating swavorkian crystal or glass beads - in a green color - you could probally wear a necklace but it should be long ( right below bustline ) and i would go with costume jewelry then also ( think rocks or a green stone on a chain ) but i would do no bracelet and no only small diamond earings -
consider wearing an anklet -
Reply:Definetly not ugg boots, bad combo.
I'm sorry but none of the shoes match because the dress is very casual and laid back while heels are more dressy especially considering that the material is terry cloth.
Try a flat in white, beige, pink or some other light color, black is too dark for it.

Reply:Deffiantly the last pair of shoes in white
but black shoes with that wouldn't look good at all in my opion and uggs only look good in my opion with jeans.
Reply:if you have to wear heels i would pick the first in black. i think you should go with flats of sandals because the dress with the heels looks to night clubbish for around town. don't wear uggs though, because they are out of style, and with the pink dress you will look like britney speares. i would also wear a jacket over this and chunky jewlery to make it more original and chic (but have the jacket in a darker color, not white or pink).
Reply:coach.com carries a beautiful charm bracelet that would look good and a simple sweater would help the outfit. pick a sweater (zip up and leave unzipped) in a black/silver/white and then wear the matching shoes
Reply:if i had to choose from your options, i'd go with the third shoe link in silver, but you can get some great flats for walking around in at payless (ya, i no, i just suggested payless) for about $10- $20 a pair. they're nothing great, but are comfortable for the average day.

Reply:the first ones are really cute and they would look so good with the dress it would look super stylish, the other two are pretty good choices as well though, but i think the first ones are more stylish, i would use an oversized bag and some giant sunglasses and you will look totally LA, and wear a few bangles on your wrist that preferably match the shoes, i absolutely love the look
