How To Get Rid Of Feet Odor

Maybe you like to do hot yoga. Maybe you like to wear Vans slip-ons with no socks. And maybe you once left a container of fruit in your gym bag for a week. Either way, no judgment here. In fact, you're not alone if you've got some gear so ripe it has to live outside.

"Fun fact, your feet have more sweat glands in them than anywhere else on your body," Taylor Wiegele, the co-founder of the odor-absorbing shoe insert brand Zorpads, says. According to Wiegele, "the sweat doesn't actually smell like anything."

Instead, "the bacteria that occurs on your feet eats that sweat and the bacteria getting stuck in your shoe turns into a really foul smelling odor compound." The plastic soles of your favorite workout shoes are the worst for storing bacteria, which is why your gym kicks are the first to smell like rotting death. And until you kill the bacteria in whatever reeks, the funk will continue every time you sweat. If you can identify your gear by scent, it's time to take action.

First, wash and clean everything to the point of odorlessness before introducing any odor-absorbing products. Do not try to cover anything up with other masking scents. If you have an industrial level clean-up to do, try rubbing everything down with vodka, Wiegele advises. (You may want to save a shot for yourself before you dive in there.) The alcohol will kill the bacteria so you won't keep building on that great wall of rotting garbage aroma.

Next, launder, launder, launder. And to make sure that the stench is officially done for, invest in one of these seven items to keep that stink from ever happening again.
