The smell of sweat can actually linger on clothing under certain conditions, even after thorough washing.

This happens because the bacteria that remain in the material are not washed out.

Because of this, clothes still smell even if you have used washing powder and conditioner.

Of course, you don’t want to put such a thing in the closet, and it usually remains hanging on the chair until better times or is simply thrown away.
