Default Question about cleaning white shoes.

I don't have any special sort of shoe cleaner available, can I use regular soap or will it dry out the shoe? They're just white etnies, with some dirt/scuff marks on the toes. Any advice is appreciated, I used to clean my shoes at work with some light cleaner that worked well h:

You could always use some liquid bleach and a tooth brush, and warm water.

hmm, might try that, I'll use only a little and dilute it with the water, so it doesn't lighten too much h:
