The smell from my flip flops is making me gag! I only bought them a months or so ago, and due to the shite weather, I haven't had much wear out of them, but even so, they hum like buggery, and I need to make them sweet smelling as it's bloody embarrassing having stinky feet.

I have Febreezed them, I have used a foot deodorant, I have left them outside and nothing has worked!!!

Help!
The smelly footed one!

Stop your feet from sweating so much.
Driclor will do that for you, it's a very heavy duty deodorant.

dishwasher?

or scrub in sink with nailbrush and disinfectant / washingup liquid

They have never whiffed before.

[strokes chin thoughtfully]

is it because they're those spongy porous ones and have absorbed more sweat than normal shoes, and it's now festering deep in the foam? (ick, I know...)

Yes, they are the ones form accessorize.

Ew that my flip flops are gunge absorbing. Nasty.

Throw them away, they are not worthy of your feet! :o

But they are so comfortable, and they are the only shoes my feet will fit into currently (am pg, and have got lovely oedema)
