Laces are on the top of your shoes it also need much care as your shoe , wash them normally in the washing machine. No need to worry about water it can washed on cold water. put it in the bag and wash, use after complete dry.

Insole Odor

Insole are the most smelly part of shoes and no one wants to be that smelly at all. It can remove by putting in air but if odor is excessive then remove them and placed in a enclosed bag with baking soda or can be cleaned by soap mixture as mention above step

Outsole

First wet and apply soap and rub with a brush until all the dirt clean, no need to hesitate applying water and soap on the outsole because that part of shoe made with a hard material and resistant to water make sure water should not goes on the top area

Removing  Gum 
If Gum stick on your outsole or midsole then that’s not a big problem it happen mostly if walk on the street remove it with a liquid or soap but if it on top of the shoes then remove carefully according to the material of shoe, I preferred rubbing an ice cube on chewing gum gently for a few minute which help in loosen the gum stickiness and remove it.
