One method is to simply use laundry detergent. Use only a small amount and rub it gently into the clothing.

Of course, there are methods of removing shoe polish stains that don't involve detergent or bleach at all. These vary depending on the type of shoe polish you're trying to remove, but almost all of them involve using a solvent of some sort. Common solvents include nail polish remover and rubbing alcohol. There are also other, even more complicated ways to remove shoe polish stains from clothing including several different types of washing machines and special cloths that can be folded over your clothes and soaked in different solvents at home.

However, if you're only using the items you have around the house, there are still more effective ways to remove shoe polish stains than others. For instance, alcohol is an effective solvent. It's also relatively easy to obtain. Therefore, rubbing alcohol is an easy way to remove shoe polish stains from clothing without having to go out and buy any fancy products.

Now that you've got a good idea on how to get shoe polish out of clothes, it's time for a little bit of cautionary advice. Be sure that whatever method you use does not involve exposing yourself or your clothing to moisture in any way. If you use too much water, it will cause the color to run and make your clothes look worse than they started out.

Also, if you're concerned about removing shoe polish stains from clothing in the future, consider changing some of your habits. For example, if you tend to carry around a lot of things in your pockets at one time (such as change or pens), try carrying them in an inside pocket instead so that they stay away from your clothing.
