To de-stink smelly canvas sneakers is a common problem for many canvas lovers in daily life. Wearing sneakers for a long time or improperly storing them will cause the shoes to emit odors. Next, I will introduce in detail the cleaning methods and preventive measures to help you solve this trouble.
Methods to de-stink smelly canvas sneakers
Liquor: Crumble the paper towel into a ball, and then pour the liquor on the paper towel. Then stuff the paper ball into the shoe. Alcohol can kill most bacteria and fungi. Therefore, it can reduce the odor in the shoe to a certain extent.
Mothball: Put the mothball in a cloth bag or wrap it with toilet paper and put it in the shoe. Mothballs can play a good role in sterilization and deodorization.
Bamboo charcoal: Bamboo charcoal has good adsorption and can remove odors from shoes. Therefore, you can place bamboo charcoal according to the method of wrapping mothballs.
Orange peel or grapefruit peel: There are many honeycomb-like substances in orange peel and grapefruit peel. This can absorb the odor in the shoe.
White vinegar: The principle of deodorizing with white vinegar is that its excellent volatility can remove odors from shoes. You can also soak worn socks in a small amount of white vinegar. In this way, you can remove odors and sterilize.
Tea leaves or coffee grounds: Used tea leaves and coffee grounds can be reused. After drying them, put them into a cloth bag and put them into the shoes. Dry tea leaves and coffee grounds have good adsorption and can eliminate odors. What’s more, they can also bring a light fragrance to the shoes.
Prevent socks from stinking
Choose socks with good breathability: Socks are items that are in direct contact with the feet, and their material and comfort directly affect the comfort of the feet. I recommend that you choose socks with good breathability such as cotton, bamboo fiber or bamboo charcoal fiber.
Change regularly: Wearing the same pair of socks for a long time will lead to the growth of sweat and bacteria. As a result, it is recommended that you change your socks every day to keep your feet clean and dry. In addition, before wearing socks, you can apply an appropriate amount of deodorizing powder or spray on your feet. Choosing insoles with deodorizing function can also effectively prevent this problem.
To de-stink smelly canvas sneakers is related to both personal image and wearing comfort. In addition, it is recommended that you choose products with reliable quality and good breathability when buying canvas shoes. This can fundamentally reduce the generation of odor.
