Many people have encountered this problem at least once.

After all, everyone's feet sweat, some more than others. This leads to an unpleasant odor. The situation can worsen in the cold season.

However, if you spend a long time indoors in winter shoes, your feet will sweat, which means that even shoes made from natural materials will start to emit an unpleasant odor.

You can cope with the problem using available means.

Soda

This universal remedy is in every home. You need to pour the powder inside your favorite pair of shoes and leave it overnight. After 5-6 hours, the remedy should be removed, and it is advisable to wipe the shoes themselves with a rag from the inside.

If we are talking about suede boots, it is better to make a sachet of soda and aromatic oils. Such a preparation should be placed inside for several hours.

It should be taken into account that delicate material will not tolerate direct contact with soda.

Tea and coffee

A tea bag should be placed under the insole for several hours to remove the unpleasant smell. You can also pour coffee in and remove the remaining product in the morning.

Newsprint

It is enough to stuff the shoes with crumpled newspapers - they will absorb the remaining moisture and excess odors.

Citrus peel

Once the tangerines or oranges are peeled, don't throw them away. It's better to fill your boots with the remains so you can forget about the problem in the morning.
