How does one wash running shoes?

I recently ran a trail run (very fun), but didn't anticipate running through water, as this is the dry season for my area. After the race my shoes were very muddy, and now deserve a good cleaning.


Have you ever washed shoes? Can you wash them in a washing machine? If so, how?


Thanks a lot!

How does one wash running shoes?
I used to sell running shoes for awhile, I always todl people how to keep them clean. First off take out the shoe laces. It is ok to wash them but use cold water and a gentle cycle if you have one. The best results are given when you spray the heck out of them with some kind of stain spray first.

Reply:I tend just to get the hose and put it on the concentrated spray bit rather than the spreader and spray all the dirt of with that, then just leave them to dry. It ony takes about a minute to get them looking nice and clean. If they get stained or anything then I just tend to spray stain remover on, give them a bit of a wipe with a cloth and clean them of the same way as before.
