How to Make Your Shoes Smell Like New Overnight — No Washing Needed!
Do your shoes sometimes start to smell a little funky, even if you wear them just a few times? Instead of tossing them in the wash or buying expensive sprays, you can easily refresh your shoes at home with simple household items like baking soda or vinegar. These natural deodorizing tricks will make your shoes smell fresh and clean overnight — and the best part? You won’t need to wash them as often!
Why Do Shoes Smell Bad?
Shoe odor usually comes from bacteria that thrive in warm, damp environments — like the inside of your shoes after a day of wear. Sweat, dirt, and moisture create the perfect breeding ground for those bacteria, leading to unpleasant smells. But you don’t need harsh chemicals to get rid of the smell. Baking soda and vinegar are natural, safe, and very effective.
Method 1: Baking Soda Magic
What you need:
- Baking soda
- A small pouch or old sock
How to do it:
- Sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda directly inside each shoe.
- Alternatively, fill a small pouch or an old clean sock with baking soda and tie it up.
- Place the baking soda-filled sock or the loose powder inside your shoes.
- Leave your shoes overnight in a dry, well-ventilated area.
- The baking soda will absorb moisture and neutralize odors while you sleep.
In the morning, shake out or vacuum any leftover powder — and enjoy your fresh-smelling shoes!
Method 2: Vinegar Spray
What you need:
- White vinegar
- Water
- A spray bottle
