NonScents Shoe Deodorizer 2-Pack (4 Count) - Odor Eliminator, Air Freshener, Smell Absorber, Scent Remover for Shoes, Gym Bags, Soccer Cleats, Closets, Pet Area, Reusable - Shoe Deodorant

I got the first one close to 3 months ago to check if it works and trust me this kills the smell of stinky shoes. I have sweaty feet and this really helped to keep the shoes smelling fresh. I have tried several products but they make the shoe smell funkier. But this deodorizer obliterates the smell and helps the shoe stay fresh. I love these soo much that I think I have bought 5 of them to date.

This is THE BEST product you will ever purchase for your athlete. I know because it changes my life, and I’m not exaggerating. Here’s how this went down. When I say that my son’s soccer cleats smelled like death, I mean we once tore the laundry room apart looking for the rodent we assumed had died, only to discover that he had started putting his cleats on the shoe rack in there and the smell was coming from them. It was a mix between rotting flesh and cat spray and it once made a pregnant woman vomit. (It was me. I was the pregnant woman.) We could even smell them when they were on his feet! There were many frustrating evening of family members being disgusted with the stinky cleats and him being bummed because he was doing everything he could to mitigate the stench. Ultimately, his cleats had to be kept out in the corner of the garage. New cleats only smelled ok for the first two weeks because he was practicing/playing in them about 25 hours a week. For years we tried deodorizing sprays, odor eater balls, special bags, fans, etc. His feet and other shoes DO NOT stink; just the cleats. I had resorted to soaking them in beach every couple of weeks just to survive the stench. Then I found these deodorizer bags. *And my life changed.* It probably took two days for them to COMPLETELY eliminate the stench. And by ”two days” I mean he put them in at night after practice and took them out the next day to practice, X2. And *poof.* The smell was just GONE. These bags don't just cover it up. They completely remove the stench. There’s no mixing of the smell of death and the smell of deodorizers, which is what usually happened with the sprays and “smelly balls,” as we call them. They do have a faint smell of chlorine, which you can really only smell if you sniff directly into the shoe (which I can do now with NO TRACE of stench), or if the bags and the shoes are enclosed in his soccer bag overnight. It isn’t overpowering. Just slightly noticeable on occasion. He’s been using the same deodorizer bag in each shoe for months and they smell as fresh and nice as brand new cleats! I’ve purchased another pair for my younger son as well, plus some extras to store away in case someone discovers this amazing product and destroys the company to make us all suffer with the stench and the far inferior alternative deodorizers. This is the closest thing to a miracle I’ve ever personally witnessed. This is undoubtedly the most impressive, useful, and functional product I’ve ever bought from Amazon (or at all) for my athlete, and I honestly can’t think if any other product I’ve ever purchased that lives up to its design or intended purpose as well as this one does. I will never stop suggesting these deodorizer bags to other athlete families. Bonus, it’s ridiculously cheap and works longer than even advertised, which is amazing when you’re already paying an arm and a leg for fees and equipment. If you also suffer from the stench of an athlete’s cleats, I highly suggest you order a pack of these and PUT AN END TO YOUR SUFFERING!

My mudroom doesn’t smell like a boy’s locker room anymore. I honestly had low hopes for this, but it actually works pretty good but almost smells like bleach sort of, but it’s not strong. You can only smell it if you’re like putting your nose to it. I put it on my son‘s soccer shoes and even after I take them out of his soccer shoes if they’ve been in there for a couple days, his shoes don’t smell anymore.. so we will definitely be purchasing these again. Let’s see how long they last.

I had an old pair of climbing shoes that smelled awful. I tried everything—washing them, deodorizer sprays, even sealing them in a bag of baking soda in the freezer. Nothing worked. When I bought new climbing shoes, I picked up these deodorizer packs to keep them fresh. They worked perfectly—my new shoes never even had a chance to develop odors. Out of curiosity, I tried them on my old, smelly pair. Within a day, the odor was VASTLY reduced, and within a few days, the smell was completely gone. The packs do leave behind a faint chlorine-like scent, which is strongest while they’re actively working, but it’s subtle unless you stick your nose right in the shoe. 10/10 would recommend, and have recommended it to a few of my friends.

They work really well at removing the 'stinky shoe' smell from my shoes, but they do have a strong odour of chlorine. I would rather have the chlorine smell than stinky shoe smell, though, so I'm pretty happy!

These cleared out a lingering odour in my work boots in one overnight sitting I tried a couple of other products that I’d bought from a local store, and they did nothing - these worked on the first try! Took the odour out of my boots, and even when I took them off after a 9 hour shift the next day, there was no odour. Would definitely recommend!
