Somebody has too much money :D Tanels these days are way too much...nice but too much, anyhow...under the tap with a brush. I wouldn't put them in the washing machine, I know a lot of people who do do that with thier trainers but given the costs of Tanels..got to be by hand.

Don't put them in the machine as the constant soaking ruins t he leather, losens the glue andwill ruin your shoes much quicker,
Always clean them as soon as possible(!!!yeah right) and use waterproof dubbing to protect if you are getting them wet alot:)

Have a long and lovely playing life with your new tanels:D

Did oyu get the durahide or the leather ones? If leather, BY HAND. Of durahide, well, if oyu've got a slop sink (a sink by a washing machine) get the strream to run hot (And, if oyu can, get some kind of attachment to make it go from a regular running current to a solid stream) and blast mud off of it. LEt 'em drip dry.

And don't, for the love of Pete, dunk them in water. DON'T DO IT!!!!! You'll trash 'em.
