It depends on how frequently you wear them and the conditions. For optimal hygiene and longevity, it's recommended to clean them gently by hand as needed, or whenever they appear visibly dirty or develop an odor.

The lifespan of running shoes typically depends on usage, mileage, and individual running style. General recommendations suggest replacing running shoes every 300-500 miles, or when you notice a decrease in cushioning or support, regardless of visible wear.
