This will protect them from the harsh cycle of the washing machine and also help soften the noise as they are spun. Put your machine on a gentle cycle, and let your trainers spin. Once they have finished their cycle, take them out and leave them to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/air-dry-vs-tumble-dry\/\">air dry<\/a>. Never put your trainers in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/tumble-dryer-care-guide\/\">tumble dryer<\/a> as the heat will warp the material and cause irreversible damage.
