My little girls has a favorite pair of sneakers, I love them too because she can slip in and out of them without help. But because she wears them without socks they are so very stinky and they make her feet stinky. We don't have this problem with any other shoe. I have washed them in the washer repeatedly but they are still stinky, what can I do?
HELP!

What can I do next?

My son is in the Army National Guard and he brought home some powder by Odor Eaters. It has corn starch and baking soda in it. He said it helps when you wear combat boots everyday. I tried it, love it and got my own container. If you give it a try, bet you'll like it too.

Hi E S:
I watch the doctors show each day, and they had a woman on asking what to do about her stinky feet. They claimed it was bacterial,and the combination of your sweat and bacteria and the material in the soles of your shoes is what causes the terrible stink. They happened to have a podiatrist there ,and told her to boil some (black tea bags) wait till its warm,and soak your feet in the black tea for 30 minutes. They said after doing this a few times,it will rid you of the bacteria that is creating the odor. Dah Dah..... Best of luck to your girls. (happy feet) : )

After you wash & dry them sprinkle some powder in them. Also a Scentsy car candle hanging in the closet with the shoes will help the smell in your house.Good Luck!! www.scentsy.com/danacarey
