Can anyone tell me if I can machine wash an Adidas backpack? Because if I can't, it's going in the bin! Really haven't time to scrub it by hand, but don't want to let it go as it's useful (but dirty) - hence posting on OS board where we make do and mend!
It's one of those small backpacks with an across-the-body strap. Was once light blue!
Any advice? There's no wash label at all.
Cheers!

I wash bags often in the washing machine. Muddy DS football bags and they are ok. If it ruins it nothing lost as you are throwing it out anyway. That is my motto!Wendy0

I always wash my boys backpacks in the machine on 40 degrees and they come out fine every time!
You've got nothing to lose anyway by trying!
Do what you love :happyhear0 -
let us know how it came out of the machine! I find that you can get away with washing most things!0
