Can these be machine washed?

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 373 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Fit: The shoes should feel snug but not restrictive. Ensure you have about a thumb's width of space at the front of the shoe.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the surface. For deeper stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft cloth; avoid fully submerging the trainers in water.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as extreme heat can warp the materials or cause the adhesive to lose effectiveness.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and try to alternate footwear daily to allow the interior to fully dry out between uses.
