after running under the rain for 30 minutes my white sneakers had a foul stench. I tried disinfectant and washing them with soap and water and lots of rubbing and sunlight to dry.

While that got rid of most of the smell, my white sneakers are now brownish, specially around the shoelaces.

I’ve never washed sneakers in the washing machine. Am I going to ruin them?

    Shoe shiners:

    1. Are exceedingly rare in the modern era, and
    2. Shine shoes. They do not clean sneakers.
