Stevo Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 After two straight days of riding, my boots got soaked (obviously), and now they stink like mildew or mold. I have 32 lashed boots. Does anyone have any tips on how to get rid of this. I'm thinking along the lines of lysol. I really need to get some boot dryers Quote
xNick11 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 haha montageskier probably has the worst stinking boots here.but u can wash the liners if u want or like use them dr scholes deoderizer ball thingys. Quote
Sno Mountain Skier Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 Who cares about the smell. Stinky boots, mean that you had a great day skiing. Or your feet stink. But just let them go. Quote

Haha, no way. You gotta smell it to believe it- there's something growing in there. Lysol it is, for the time being.b Quote

Glenn Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 Agreed, just let the boots dry. No need to use deoderizers. They are bound to get smelly again anyways. Quote
LineSki Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 when my friends dried his they use to bake in his room and his room smelled like shit. but yeah or use febreeze. Quote
adrian Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 in the future, maybe invest in those boots with antimicrobial liners. does anyone have experience with those? Quote
Stevo Posted January 24, 2006 Author Report Posted January 24, 2006 If you want to smell some stinky boots smell mine after today. The smell would be orgasmic for somebody with a smelly fot fetish. Maybe I could make some $$$ with an ad on Craigs list...what what   in the future, maybe invest in those boots with antimicrobial liners. does anyone have experience with those? Haha, they do have the anti-microbial liners! They still stink. I blasted them with lysol, and they're smelling better. Just one more shot and i should be good. Quote
sexkitten Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Guys are hopeless. If you have dry boots and just want to deodorize sprinkle some Gold bond or Dr. Scholls powder and let them sit a few hours or overnight. When you are ready to wear them again dump out the powder and strap them on. VERY IMPORTANT- unless you want foot powder mashed potatoes in your boots don't powder when they are wet. You're welcome.

Stevo Posted January 29, 2006 Author Report Posted January 29, 2006 ....or use boot dryers. I picked up a pair at sports authority for like, 30 bucks. Doesn't help the stink, but prevents mildew and mold. (i think) Quote
romemadman Posted February 2, 2006 Report Posted February 2, 2006 you can put those little packets u get in shoe boxes that say do not eat all over them in your boots to absorb the moisture Quote
meggles Posted February 2, 2006 Report Posted February 2, 2006 heh the stench of my boots is sooo vulgar........i've had them for 2 or 3 years and the footbeds are rotting away and stuff, along with the liners, around the heel......its an unpleasant situation. i dont really mind the smell; it goes away after you put them on, so only when i take them out to dry or put them on does it reek plus they've got all these dents and notches and crap in them.....haha they've served me well.

zaldon Posted February 3, 2006 Report Posted February 3, 2006 i just let mine go builds character if you ask me Quote
sibhusky Posted February 3, 2006 Report Posted February 3, 2006 I put some Febreeze in mine over the summer (had lots of time to sink in and dry) and they seem to be a lot better -- at least I haven't smelled them lately and it used to be you could smell them at 50 feet. Quote
