Don't know. What's the worse that could happen? Go for it.

Should'nt be a Problem on a Low heat.
Alternatively wait for it to snow about 3 inches deep then take a walk for 2 hours, that got mine sparking white again.

If you take a trip to your local sporting goods store, they should have a handy tool for washing/drying sneakers, what it does is mount in your washer or dryer using adjustable plastic arms that stop them from going everywhere in your washer and dryer and such.
They also sell them for hats ;p

Top tip, buy two pairs of cheap trainers and rotate them every other week. This way the smell and mud seem to drop off when its there week of rest

I just bought a deadstock pair of Nike BB4s (2002) which were ONLY MADE for Stanford University's b-ball team...
There are prolly 50 pair in the WORLD!
I'm never wearing them so washing them is not an issue.
I'm getting into collecting rare kicks, so, that's why I asked..
