How Do You Prevent Stinky Basketball Shoes?
02/08
Throughout the use of my previous pair of basketball shoes, I’ve noticed a strong odor seeping from the shoes. Every time I put on the shoes, I would have to wash my fingers because of the lingering scent.
I’ve recently bought a new pair of basketball shoes and I was hoping to prevent the smelliness this time around. Any hints?
I’ve been told that since I wear low cut socks, the sweat from my feet/legs can still be absorbed by the fabrics of my shoes. As a result, would wearing higher cut socks necessarily help?







What up Kevin C,
i think you need to get some “odor eaters”. That’s probably the best solution. Higher cut socks still does not prevent the shoe from absorbing sweat. i would get some odor eaters and just put them in your shoes.
Hope that helps. Kindly,

There are a number of things you can do to prevent this, as other users have suggested try Odor Eaters or you could go for something more old fashioned like Bi-Carb sodor. I’m sure that there a whole aisle dedicated to things like this in a supermarket so it shouldn’t be hard to prevent the smell.
odor eaters, foot powder, air your shoes out at night, air your feet out as much as possible and have your feet checked you may have athletes foot.
Definetely after you take them off put them outside to air out till the next time you put them on
wear thick socks
