Hi, I have been using Yonex badminton shoes foe nearly 1 full year. It has become dirty on the top due to dust , sweat etc. SO, if I try to wash it, will its sole or any other part of the shoe get affected. If i use these shoes ( after washing) on court, will it be sort of sticky to the ground? So please tell me If I can wash the shoe or just I have to dust it with a dry cloth?

Opinions on washing sports shoes go apart, and I never washed a Yonex shoe. I use to wash my sports shoes like every 8 months with just little soap at 30°C, i didn't feel any decrease in Quality (Asics and Adidas). Some people say, that washing them would destroy the cushioning, though. You certanly loose the warranty. I even called the asics distributor back then and the woman told me, she'd wash her jogging shoes herself. ;-) So, after a year I would say why not.. For unpleasant smells you could try shoe deodorant or even deep freezing them. (I heard.. )
