Boot Bananas Original Shoe Deodorisers – Banana-Shaped Fresheners to Fight Footwear Funk – Eco-Friendly, Reusable Odour Fighters for Trainers, Boots & Smelly Kit – Combat Stink & Stay Fresh 6-12 mo

​I have a friend who uses these for her climbing shoes, and after seeing how well they worked for her, I just had to get some. Straight out of the pack, they smell amazing - a really fresh, natural scent that is a huge relief for my sensory sensitivities. I put them into my La Sportiva Tarantula boulder climbing shoes immediately, they freshened them up perfectly with their natural ingredients and fit really snug inside. I actually used the carabiner provided to clip through the loops of my shoes too to keep them all together! Which is a really cool trick i discovered and is defo worth doing so they dont slip out - its probably what its for but i feel very smart for finding it out on my own! Lol! ​The texture is worth mentioning too. They have a bead-like material inside that feels really cool and satisfying to touch, and the outside cotton skin is surprisingly soft. As someone who is neurodivergent and deals with high anxiety, these small tactile details make the product feel like more than just a deodoriser; it’s actually quite calming to handle while I'm prepping my gear. ​My friend has had this exact brand for four months, and even with us climbing 3 times a week for 2-3 hours a session, her shoes still smell fresh so i know just how durable and effective they are. For just under £15, knowing they will last that long makes them amazing value for money. If you're a frequent climber who cares about sensory details and keeping gear fresh, these are a must-have.

These have a nice lemony smell which smells natural. My daughter is very sporty and her trainers needed these. I can no longer smell the trainers when these are in them so they must be doing their job. Quality seems good as does value for money. They seem to be effective.

Works well. Good scents too

Genuinely surprised how good these cleared up some smelly sweaty shoes. Removed the smell and dried them out really well. For longer use, really recommend drying them out on a rad over night too. Easy to use, great value for money and already recommending them to friends.

Absolutely love these odour aiders. They are cute and so fun and do the job at hand. We use them in all of our sports shoes and especially for PE shoes that our kids use extensively at school. The design is easy on the eye and they keep their shape and odour eating properties well. My son has become accustomed to using these and I keep buying more. Excellent product which is expensive but worth the money.

Not as good as I was led to believe. Put into my son's work boots every night when he came home. The boots were never wet or anything but the bananas went brown within a few weeks. Wouldn't recommend unfortunately 😕

Great product, works very well. Football boots smell 100 times better

Good. I had a few days off from work so I put the boot bananas in my work boots for 4 days straight, where they worked hard to very slowly neutralize an old, disgusting smell. I am a bit worried that the bananas have become discoloured after a single use, perhaps I got a bad batch? Overall recommended. UPDATE 2 WEEKS ON: Mold has grown on the bananas and they have become even more discoloured. I genuinely cannot imagine these lasting 2 months, much less the advertised 6 to 12 months. Not recommended at their current price point. If the price was halved, say £7, then they would be worth it. Not so at close to £17. UPDATE 3 WEEKS ON: I received a message from the seller explaining the item and its intended use and have realized I wasn't using the bananas as intended - If used in sweaty work boots, they're meant to be used in conjunction with their boot dryers, to avoid the bananas being oversaturated by sweat. Review moved to 5 stars due to attentiveness and professionalism of seller.

Makes my stinky climbing shoes smell less gross

Not as good as I thought. It smells pretty weird and it tends to get the bad smell of the shoes and hold it as well, creating a nasty overall smell. It didn’t do much for my shoes…

Sinds één week in gebruik, klimschoenen ruiken nu heel fris. Hopelijk gaan ze een tijdje mee, deze boot bananas!

These Boot Bananas shoe deodorizers actually work. I pop them in my boots or sneakers after a long day, and by the next morning the smell is gone — not just covered up, but genuinely neutralized. They’re easy to use, last a long time, and don’t leave any weird residue or scent. Perfect for gym shoes, work boots, or anything that gets funky. Definitely worth it.
