Cleaning my kids' shoes used to be such a hassle. I'd soak them in the sink and spend forever scrubbing them by hand. Now I just put them in these bags and let the washing machine do the work. It saves me so much time and effort, especially with how quickly kids manage to get their shoes dirty.

Frequently asked questions

Questions, answered honestly

Can't I just use towels or a pillowcase?
You can, and lots of people start there. Towels soften some of the banging, but the shoe still flops around the drum, the mud and gunk end up on your towels, and the shoe itself barely gets scrubbed. Washaroo zips your pair into a padded bag with soft microfiber strands inside, so they stay put, get scrubbed all over, and keeps the dirt off the rest of your laundry.
Will it wreck my washer or my shoes?
That's exactly the fear Washaroo is built for. The padded walls keep studs and hard soles from slamming the drum, and keep the shoe from getting thrown around. Wash cold (or 30°C) on a gentle cycle, then air-dry. Heat is what loosens glue and shrinks shoes, so skip hot water and skip the dryer.
Can cleats really go in the washing machine?
Most synthetic cleats can, on a cold, gentle cycle, inside the bag. Knock off the loose mud first and pull out the insoles. Leather and kangaroo-leather cleats should not be machine washed.
Will it get the smell out of my kid's cleats?
Honest answer: washing gets out the mud, turf and sweat that cause most of the smell, and that makes a big difference. We won't promise it's gone forever. Dry them all the way afterward, on a boot dryer if you have one. Wash, then dry: that's the routine that works.
Will it turn my white sneakers yellow?
Wash the bag once on its own before the first use, pre-treat heavy stains, skip bleach, and air-dry with paper towels stuffed inside.
Will the zipper pop open mid-wash?
Washaroo has a sturdy zipper. Zip it all the way closed before it goes in, and the shoe stays in the bag, not loose in your drum.
Which shoes shouldn't go in?
Skip suede, leather cleats, foam clogs, rain boots and light-up shoes unless the care label says they're machine washable. For smooth leather sneakers, check the care label first.
How many shoes fit in one bag?
One bag fits a full pair, up to men's size 13, including high-tops and cleats. Small kids' shoes fit easily too.
Does it work in my top-loader?
Front-loaders get the best results. Top-loaders without a center agitator work well too. With an agitator, expect weaker results.
Will it get out pee or set-in stains?
A wash takes care of the everyday mess and most of the smell. Set-in stains and accidents may need a pre-treat or an enzyme pre-soak first. We won't promise miracles.
How do I dry them?
Air-dry only. Stuff the shoes with paper towels and stand them in front of a fan or near (not on) a vent. No dryer, no heat.
Why pay more than a cheap 2-pack?
Because the cheap ones tend to get the big things wrong: zippers that pop open, thin walls that let shoes bang around. Washaroo is padded, has a sturdy zipper, and one bag fits a full pair, up to men's size 13. Plus a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it on every pair in the house.

Your wash routine

From Muddy to Ready by Morning

No more scrubbing at the sink. Here's the whole routine, start to finish.

  1. After practice

    Knock Off the Mud

    Clap the shoes together and pull the insoles. Loose mud stays outside, not in your washer.

  2. 30 seconds

    Bag the Pair

    Put both shoes in one bag. The padded walls keep studs and soles from banging the drum, and the laces stay with the shoes.

  3. In the wash

    Cold, Gentle Cycle

    Toss it in with a few towels. The soft fibers scrub the whole shoe while the machine does the work.

  4. By morning

    Air Dried and Ready

    Air dry overnight with paper towels stuffed inside. Mud, turf and sweat washed out, ready for school or Saturday's game.

One bag fits a full pair, up to men's size 13, including high-tops and cleats. Skip leather, suede and light-up shoes.

Why not just use towels or a pillowcase?

Towels cushion a little. Washaroo wraps every shoe.

Towels or a pillowcase

Thuds

The shoe still bangs the drum, and the mud ends up on your towels

Washaroo

Stays put

Padded walls and soft microfiber strands around your pair

Plenty of people start with a few towels or a tied-up pillowcase, and it half works. The towels soften some of the banging, but the shoe still flops around the drum, the mud and gunk end up on your towels, and the fabric of the shoe barely gets scrubbed.

Washaroo is different. Your pair zips into one padded bag, so they can't slam the drum, and the soft microfiber strands inside scrub every surface while your washer runs. Knock off the loose mud, zip it in, run a cold, gentle cycle, then air-dry. One bag fits a full pair, up to men's size 13.

  • Padded walls protect shoes and washer
  • Microfiber strands do the scrubbing
  • Sturdy zipper keeps the shoe inside

What customers say after their first wash

Saved my new white shoes

I had a customer accidentally knock a soda onto my brand-new white running shoes at work. I was devastated! I ordered these washing bags hoping they could save them, and I couldn't believe the results. I washed them on a cold, gentle cycle and let them air dry. Every soda stain was gone! My shoes looked amazing. These bags are an absolute game changer.

Practically brand new

I used to give up on cleaning my sneakers once they got too dirty and just turn them into yard shoes. I honestly wasn't expecting much from these bags, but I was blown away. My shoes came out looking practically brand new! I've since washed almost every pair I own. Now I just wish I'd discovered these sooner instead of throwing away perfectly good shoes.
