Stinks, they do. Can someone help with cleaning golf shoes?

My 15 year old has some all leather Foot Joy golf shoes that he has worn for about a year. He is starting to grow out of them, but has a few good months before that day comes. Does anyone know of a good way to clean them? Can I throw them in the wash, since they are going to be gone in a few months anyway (too used to donate, I promise, although I’ll try)? He’s growing like a weed but can get a good few rounds in before he needs the next pair. The smell is just killing us… any suggestions? The shoe spray is beyond our help at this point. Yes, I know, new shoes. But he golfs every other day and every weekend, rain or shine. We were planning on buying him new ones for a gift when/if he makes the high school team, so trying to wait (we will buy him new ones when he can no longer use these, but thought it would be a nice thing as a gift if he does). You probably didn’t need the story behind why I need these clean shoes. Sorry. Thanks so much for any help!

I bet the insole can be removed. Peel that stinky thing out and replace it!
You can find shoe insoles at sporting goods stores and many shoe stores. Then make him put foot powder in his shoes every time he wears them. I play sports and this really makes a big difference in keeping shoe stink at a minimum.
