How to wash shoes in a washer?

It is important to note that there is no special mode intended strictly for washing shoes in most of the low and medium-price category washing machines. However, this does not mean that you have to give up such an undertaking.

So, what is the algorithm for washing shoes in a washing machine? First, clean the soles of your shoes, especially if they are heavily soiled. Uncleaned dirt can stain the woven fabric. Remove insoles and laces from shoes if necessary. These items can be washed by hand or not cleaned at all if they are not stained. It is optimal to place shoes in a special mesh cover. It will provide gentle cleaning and protect your shoes from rapid wear. The next step is to load the shoes into the tub of the washing machine. If you have multiple pairs of sneakers of a similar color (both are light or both are dark), you can wash them in one cycle. If the shoes are different in color, do not risk it, but wash them separately.

Next, add the liquid powder to the detergent drawer. Experts advise giving preference to liquid detergents since they are less aggressive and capable of creating a moderate, dense foam for gentle cleaning. Washing should be carried out with cold or slightly warm water. At the end of the wash cycle, dry the shoes naturally (in a warm, well-ventilated place or in the fresh air). Avoid direct sunlight during the drying process.
