I have a few canvas sneakers that I always wear without socks, and the insoles of the sneakers turn yellow? (A yellow brown color) They used to be white. What causes the insoles to slowly change color is it by aging? I seen other canvas sneakers that are old, and the insoles are still white. So what causes the insoles to turn yellow?

hummmm My best guess is that your feet sweat...the chemical changes the color and make your sneakers odiferous.

Either it's because you're feet isn't clean enough or the sneaker is old try wearing them with sock or change the insole often.

The reason for that is usually dirt and sweat.I like it happens anyway if you do wear socks,cause all mine are like that too but with out the yellow color and I wear socks. Same thing happens if you wear a shirt and sweat really bad in it.The armpit part of the shirt turns yellowish orange. Hope I answered your question.

It's caused by sweat, dirt, and foot fungus. Put some socks on, or at least use baking soda or Odor Eaters before you get athlete's foot and never attract a woman again.

the oils in your skin cause them to become yellow...you have the most sweat glands in your feet and I guess it builds up as time goes on in your sneakers.
I spray my sneakers with dr. scholl's spray and it cuts down on the amount my feet sweat and I change my insoles from time to time.

your feet sweet and as we all know sweet is not clear like water......that is why your insoles are turning yellow. to solve this problem you can obviously wear socks. it is best to wear socks either way to keep from getting sore spots on your feet and to avoid nasty infections and also not to forget the odor!!

When you don't wear socks, your dirty feet (and sweat) discolor the insoles. Want to solve that? Wear socks!

Are you a smoker by any chance?
It could be nicotine.
Foot fungus caused by moister build up.
Make sure you air your soles out so they dry completely or simply change them if need be.
