In the washing machine
Once your sneakers have been pre-treated , let’s move on to see how to complete the cleaning by washing them in the washing machine .
Obviously, I remind you to always consult the washing labels on the soles to make sure that washing your shoes in the washing machine is permitted.
Furthermore, also remove the laces , in order to open the shoe and allow better washing . All you have to do, therefore, is put the sneakers in the basket, always making sure not to put more than three pairs.
Then, start a delicate wash cycle at low temperatures , not exceeding 30° or 40° and pour a little white vinegar or Marseille soap into the detergent drawer .
These ingredients , in fact, not only degrease but also help deodorize your footwear .
Although you can use any detergent , I only advise you to prefer liquid ones and avoid powder ones , as residues could remain on the shoes.
Finally, I remind you not to set the spin speeds or select the program with a minimum spin cycle .
NB If you want to be sure not to damage your sneakers, put them in a canvas bag or in a net specifically for shoes.
