affordable, colourful men's trainers that can go in washing machine

Can anyone suggest any brands of nice, colourful fabric mens trainers that can go in the washing machine when they get dirty and smelly? Or shops to look at a selection? For a gift for DH who is really hard on his shoes - they get battered to death.

I went to a New Balance shop yesterday - but they all seem to have suede bits on. The Nike ones now all seem to have a giant swoosh tick on them which would be too teenage-style for him

I had a look around Sports Direct etc already at the cheaper end - but they mostly seem to be black and white colours.

TIA for any suggestions.

Converse? DH has red ones (among others) and they go in the wash.

Sadly, he's for some reason never got on with Converse, so it has to be more of a fabric trainer than a canvas shoe. Thanks for the idea though!

I put every kind of trainer in the washing machine, including leather and never had any problems. Some leathers will need conditioning after they have dried but they all come out looking great.
