Smelly Shoes? Try These Tips To Remove Bad Odour From Shoes

Imagine this: You have just reached the office after a long journey from home. You open your laptop and shoes, sit comfortably and a sudden wave of pungent odour hits you. That is your shoe, smelling like rotten eggs. This is a common problem faced by many, especially during the summer, because the sweat and dirt give off an unpleasant odour. Well, worry not! We have curated a list of tips that will help you combat the bad odour from your shoes.

1. Use Baby Powder

One of the main reasons that our shoes smell is because of the accumulation of dirt and sweat. This can be avoided by using baby powder on our feet. The baby powder absorbs all the moisture from your feet, making them dry and preventing any bad smell. Make sure that your feet are completely clean before you apply powder, as applying powder to dirty feet can have an adverse effect.

2. Use A Rubbing Alcohol Spray

Another great way to avoid bad odour in your shoes is by disinfecting it. You can do this by filling a spray bottle with rubbing alcohol and spraying a light mist on your shoes a few hours before you wear them. The rubbing alcohol in the spray will kill all the bacteria in the shoe.

Personal hygiene is key when it comes to preventing any bad odour. So make sure you wash your feet thoroughly with an antibacterial soap and wear clean, washed socks. This will prevent the bacteria and sweat build-up quite a lot, ensuring your shoe smells fresh and clean.
