How can I get the horrible smell out of my shoes?

Question

I cant wash them- they have beading and embroidery on them.

I cant wear socks because they would look horrible with socks-they are skimmers.

Answer 1

Put a generous dusting of baking soda in them, you can put them in a plastic bag and put in the freezer for a couple days to kill live bacteria. Wear socks.

Answer 2

When you wash them with a lot soap, don't forget to have Lysol for the final rinse. Then using the shoes, try to check if your feet are wet and put foot powder inside before using it. Hope I helped you.

Throw them away and get a new pair

Try spraying them with Febreeze Fabric spray, or use a foot/shoe spray or powder. You may also want to try spraying the inside with Lysol.

Wash your horrible feet more often. Then there's the one about the Polack who put odor eaters in his shoes. He took three steps and disappeared!

Answer 7

try either washing them...or a product for shoes that takes out the smell...that should work

Answer 9

they make these little balls that are like air fresheners for your shoes. just pop one in each shoe and leave it for a few days (or longer, depending on the intensity of the smell) and it should be gone. you can buy them at many shoe and athletic stores, and they come in lots of different scents.

Spray them at night with some foot fungus spray, or try putting baking soda in them at night and putting them in a well ventilated area.
