My gym shoes smell, terribly. Can't I just throw them in the washing macine?
Lots of contradictory things I've read on the internet. Baught a pair of rebocks over the summer and they smell, I guess they have some kind of leather on them.
Is it bad for leather to get wet?
Is it safe to throw them in the washing machine by themselves?
What about the laces and insoles?
what about muffeling the noise?
How long do they take to air dry?
Any advice would be greately appreciated, especially if you've experimented with this yourself.
oh, also, I have this neopreene knee brace, starting to smell bad too. what's the best way to clean/remove odor from it. I've heard stuff about vinegar but....iono about it
leather will shrink in the wash, and the shoes will never fit the same again if you do put them in a washing machine, even if they're not leather.
You'd have to make sure they were completely dry before wearing them again (which could take a WEEK with all the padding in the shoe) or they'd smell even worse when you wore them again.
