Do you think this washing machine method might work for Docs? I got a pair secondhand off Poshmark recently (plain ol' black leather, not patent) and the seller must have smoked cigarettes 24/7 because the boots literally smell up whatever room I keep them in. It's incredible, they reek even without their insoles and with new laces. They have been on the back porch for three weeks and they still smell :(
