Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

Troubleshooting
Trainers feel stiff initially
Wear them for short periods around the house to break them in gradually. The canvas and sole will soften with use.
Difficulty tying laces evenly
Ensure the laces are loosened before tying. Try different lacing techniques or replace laces if they are worn.
Discoloration on the rubber sole
Use a rubber cleaner or a mild abrasive cleaner with a cloth. For scuff marks, a magic eraser can often remove them.
Uneven wear on the platform sole
Ensure you are walking with a natural gait. If the issue persists, consult product support as it may indicate a manufacturing defect.
