Method3Airing Out Your Insoles
Method3
- 1Take the insoles out of your shoes. The insoles are the padded flaps that line the bottom of your shoes on the inside. Just lift and pull them up to remove them.[9]
If the insoles won't come out, try to clean them while they're still in your shoes.
- 2Sprinkle baking soda over the insoles and let them sit overnight. The baking soda will absorb any bad odors on the insoles that are causing your shoes to smell. You don’t need a lot of baking soda. Just use enough to lightly cover the entire surface of both insoles.[10]
- 3Brush the baking soda off the insoles. Brush it off into the trash or a plastic bag, or take the insoles outside and shake the baking soda off. Once all the baking soda is off, you can slip the insoles back into your shoes.[11]
