We are often advised not to wash trainers in a washing machine as they can ruin both the fabric of the shoe and the drum in your washing machine. Washing trainers by hand can be a tiresome task, involving much scraping of mud. And they never seem to come quite as clean as you'd like. 

However, in Indesit washing machines the manufacturer has devised a shoe cycle which makes washing your trainers simple - without damaging the shoe or the machine. 

Indesit washing machines offer the Special Shoe cycle which allows you to quickly wash your trainers in the washing machine. It is the first programme specifically designed for sports shoes and trainers and claims to keep them like new, saving the time and effort it takes to wash them by hand. 

How does the Special Shoe Cycle work?

During the wash cycle (and the dry cycle in an Indesit washer dryer) the shoes stay close to the drum so they don't knock, scrape or fall over each other. This ensures the shoes don't bash against the sides of the drum and also means noise levels are reduced. 

This cycle fully compliments the sports cycles on Indesit washing machines, making this manufacturer the perfect choice for fitness fanatics.

The two sports wash programmes included on Indesit washing machines include:

1. Sports light - this cycle is built for synthetic gym clothes such as yoga kits or swim wear.

2. Sports intensive - this will take care of garments worn for outdoor sports such as football, rugby or cross country running. It gets rid of mud and grime at the push of a button.
