Sneakers+Pond Water+Sweat = Gross. Help.?

I worked at a garden center all summer and my sneakers got drenched in pond water and sweat every day. Now they are disgusting. I would just buy a new pair, but I'm in college and don't have the money. What can I do to make them smell better??? I already tried washing them and they still smell the same.

Eww. Come on, you can't be serious. Go to Wal-Mart and get yourself a pair of ultra-cheapy shoes that will last you till you get paid. Better to wear cheap than smelly.

use color safe bleach and make sure you permeate the insides, and mesh, ect (any fabric). This should remove any kind of odor, if this doesn't work try using "orangefast" which is a mechanic hand soup you can pick up at NAPA or any auto part store. This stuff removes grease and oil from clothing so it should remove any kind of protein which is not disolvable directly in water.
Reply:I don't think that's gonna come out, but try using Oxi Clean.
Reply:You can also try stuffing them with newspaper every night. The newspaper absorbs the odor. And, try sprinkling the insides with baking soda, too. If it works in the fridge, it should work in your shoes, too.





Hope this helps.
Reply:i sympathize with your financial dilemma, but i say, throw them out! get new ones!





they smell nasty, which cannot be good for your social life, and they will give you foot fungus!
Reply:Throw them in the washing machine with same bleach. Dry them in the sun. Fill a stocking for each shoe with cat litter and leave in until the smell is gone.
