How to Remove Odor From Shoes PERMANENTLY

Here's how to remove odor from shoes fast and pretty permanently. If you struggle with smelly feet, or your shoes stink to high heavens, then using this method to remove the smell from your shoes will help you out greatly.

I recommend that you just jump straight into using one of the suggested solutions instead of messing around with shoe deodorizer spray or random home remedies. As they only mask the problem, while ethanol or similar actually kills the bacteria that makes your shoes stink.

You've saved my family's nostrils. Thank you for the useful info.

So, in conclusion:
1. Wash your feet very well
2. Wear socks if possible
3. Spray alcohol-based hand sanitizers once your shoes start to smell

After countless ways to get the smell out of my shoes with no results I almost gave up and was ready to throw everything in the trash. With my last hope I typed on YouTube "how to get the smell out of shoes " and your video poped up. You actually saved my shoes they smell so nice even after days of use. I wished I could give you a hug🤗🤗

Zero bullshit and straight to the point. You earned a new subscriber

Dude I need this. My shoes should be stored in a nuclear factory of how smelly it it

You know, now that you said to just use alcohol, it makes so much sense even though I never thought of it before. The alcohol actually kills the bacteria causing the smell instead of just masking it. It's pretty wild this isn't more commonly known (at least I don't think it is)

Finally a solution!! My shoes are in leather so I can't wash them. Classic Norwegian winter boots. Problem is, some idiot thought it would be smart to design them with synthetic materials on the _inside_ of the shoe! It's been developing a nasty odour since last winter, and I haven't used them since then. Put them on today, and what do you know. Still smells horrible! I just ripped out the soles and covered them in rubbing alcohol. Thanks man.. Really thought my last option was to throw them out.

Thank you, I went hiking in mine and got some dirt and other things inside my shoe about a month ago. I washed the insoles and it lasted about 2 wears and the smell came back, so I am going to try this method! Thank you so much!

I never expected this to work but I gave it a try and it’s perfectly valid!
Thank you for this helpful video ❤

I’m at work and just noticed my shoes are now stinky, very embarrassing even though I’m by myself I’m hyper aware of the smell. I just used some 80% alcohol hand sanitizing spray that I have on my desk and it WORKED. Duh, the alcohol kills the smelly bacteria! Why didn’t I do this sooner??? I wish this video was around 5 years ago I literally threw pairs of fairly new adidas away because I thought I had ruined them forever and nothing else worked

Just before watching this video, I was about to try all the methods that don’t work. I am so glad I found this video. I have some rubbing alcohol spay that I added a few drops of essential oil to. It has completely neutralized the odour. Thanks buddy!

Thanks, this is great! I put my shoe on the other day, it was a tight fit so I hooked my fingers into the heel inside to get a good grip on it, and afterwards my hands smelled so bad lol!! I only just bought these a week ago but it's been unusually warm and sunny here in Scotland. So yeah I'll be trying this out. I do have a lot of isopropyl alcohol that I use for cleaning electronics so I'll try that, but I'm a bit worried it'll evaporate too quickly before it soaked in and kills the beasties. Anyway I like your style of videos. Subscribed!

Someone gave me advice once & my shoes/feet have NEVER smelled ever again. NEVER WALK IN YOUR SOCKS BEFORE YOU PUT YOUR SHOES ON! Only clean socks everytime you put your shoes on & shoes NEVER smell. You do have alot more socks to wash but thats much better than stinky shoes. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[andreacarrion]

Thanks for the straight to the point method. It does work!

[jhluman]

Laundry sanitizer, added to the washer, also works well. Same principle. Get rid of the bacteria, get rid of the smell.
I learned this successful method from my experiences as I sought to get bath towels smelling fresh. Laundry sanitizer is amazing!!

[littlemonster]

I love this method!!! I’m a maintenance technician so I use my hands every second like crazy and I forgot my finger tips were cracked and splitting open from work. Lol!!! It was hell doing this method if you’re not paying attention to your wounds on your hands. Wear gloves. Nitrile.

[mintzs]

had to watch so many videos to find one so useful 😭 thank you!

[kennethtemew]

best video i know ... short video .... straight to the point.

300+ comments. I wonder if someone will read this one. I tried a lot of different things including everything on the video and the real game changer was merino wool socks. 40% merino wool is usually enough as long as you don't plan on wearing the same socks 2 days in a row. They are a bit price but worth totally worth it. (I wear steal toe boots in 90 degree weather 10+ hours a day)

I had a muslim roommate back in university days and i noticed a weird phenomena cuz he always wears cheap chinese sneakers and never smelled bad and i was wearing top brands and after a long period they smell really bad. When i asked him about it he said he washed his feet 5 times a day or more and he took me to a nearby mosque and i stood near the room where they put their shoes and only smelled leather and normal shoe smell although there were hundreds of shoes. So i started washing my feet every 3 hours or so and got rid of the problem.
