Stinky foot

6 replies

Ifixbrokenthings · 17/10/2019 16:53

DS is primary age with size 10 (adult) feet. He is very tall. My problem is his runners. They stink. That's OK. He's super active as are his feet. I'm going to buy him 2 pairs which are easily machine washed. His feet will probably grow more, and he destroys footwear so I'm going to buy from a lower price range as I'll be buying more at Christmas .
Any suggestions on a good quality but lower price point runners/trainers? Up to about 40quid each? Thank you

Have you tried using odour eater insoles op? They keep my DS’s trainers fresher for longer before they start to stink.

I've just ordered some for his next set of runners. I've tried bicarb, airing, new socks. The secondary issue is the destruction of all footwear from hours of football every day. Happiest complaint ever. Just going to be broke from buying shoes this year. This is pair 8 or 9 since January. Runners only. Not incl school shoes!

Have you tried Decathlon? My girls have been wearing theirs forever. I got some adult ones for £10!

Try a product called grams remedy - amazing!!!!

Will Google grams remedy this min. I've never tried Decathlon runners myself so the recommendation is welcome, thank you. I'm more than happy to buy 10 or 20quid runners until his feet stop growing/he stops destroying them. Whichever is first!
