How to wash sneakers?

Sneakers are footwear that can suffer a lot of insides a washing machine: The soles can take off, the surface of the footwear can be damaged and even deformed. That is why it is essential to follow a series of precautions to maximize the life of the shoes:

Remove the cords: Removing the cords is the first thing you will always have to do. Do not put them loose in the washing machine, as they could clog the drain. It is best to tie them so that they stay together and take them in a bag for delicate items because they will not be lost.

Remove the insoles: If possible, remove the insoles from the shoes. In the washing machine, they can be undone, so it is more convenient to wash them by hand.

Remove surface dirt: Before putting them in the washing machine, remove as much dirt as possible, especially the one that remains attached to the die-cut out of the sole among the drawings of the sole. There are usually gaps in which remains of dirt, sand, mud and other sticky substances such as food or gum remain. Try to remove all these remains with the help of a brush. It can be worth any personal brush that we have at home, such as an old toothbrush or one for nails. Rub the dirt with soap and water and, if the shoe is white, you can use some bleach.

Do not put them in any way: We recommend you not to put the shoes directly in the washing’s drum machine, it is better to wash them in a cloth or mesh bag. Some brand shoes already come with your bag, but if you don’t have a special one, you can use a bag for any delicate clothes.

Rabbits for the washing machine: We recommend you always wash them alone, do not mix with other clothes. Use a short program and, when choosing the temperature to wash the shoes, always select cold water. Do not wash them with warm water or hot water. Choose not to spin, because there will be less risk of the shoes spoiling.

When the washing machine is finished, put the shoes to dry in an airy place, but never directly in the sun or near a heat appliance (stoves, air conditioners, hairdryers, etc.) And, above all, never set goals in the dryer.

Wash leather slippers in the washing machine

If you want to wash leather shoes in the washing machine because they look dirty or especially dull, follow the step by step we have indicated in the previous section.

There are many homemade tricks to remove skin blemishes that can serve you:

Dark spots on white: Coffee or wine stains are sprinkled with talcum powder and left overnight to absorb as much as possible. The next day, you just have to brush the garment dry. You can also carry out this method with bicarbonate, as we tell you in this article on How to use bicarbonate for stains.

Rebellious stains: In case it is a rebel stain, you can try rubbing gently with a mixture of vinegar and water. Let your clothes or footwear air dry and then you can put them in the washing machine. We explain this in more detail in this article on How to wash clothes with vinegar.

Cloth shoes get dirty more than leather shoes because they are soaked with any liquid and the spots look more, especially if they are white. If, for example, you wear a rainy day. It is very likely that you will have to wash them when you get home. You must do it:

Remove the laces and templates: Before putting them in the washing machine, immerse them in cold water with soap (if they are very dirty, you can use warm water) and rub them with a brush until you see that the spots disappear. If they are difficult stains, you can help yourself with a mixture of bicarbonate, vinegar and hydrogen peroxide and rub again with more energy. If the shoe is white, you can also use some bleach, as it is very effective for both the fabric and the soles. If the shoe is colored, the bleach will eat the color as soon as it is touched, so avoid using it.
