Washing Performance or Light-Up Skechers
Don’t put performance or light-up Skechers in the washing machine. Performance shoes are the athletic version of Skechers and will break down faster if you put them in the washing machine. Machine washing will also damage the lights in light-up shoes.
If you’re not sure what kind of Skechers you have, look at the Skechers’ website and compare your shoes to the photos there.
Brush off excess dirt from your shoes with a rag. Before you reach for the water, do a preliminary brush-off of the dirt on your shoes. You don’t need a special kind of brush, because you can just use a rag, an old tooth brush, a sponge, or a towel.
Brushing off the excess dirt means you won’t accidentally be rubbing this dirt in as you try to clean your Skechers.

Let the shoes and insoles air dry. Leave your shoes in a dry, room-temperature, well-ventilated spot. If you washed insoles, let them air dry outside of your shoes before putting them back in. It might take a few days for you shoes to totally air dry, but don’t get impatient and put them in the dryer.
