I recently ran a pair of tennis shoes through the washer, and much to my dismay, when I took them out of the washer, the bottoms had become loose, and were starting to detach. I was kind of surprised since I have washed other pairs of tennis shoes before in the washer, and never had this problem. In the future I’ll make it a point to hand-wash them, using a shoe cleaning kit that was recommended to me by a friend.
