Answer 1

odor-eaters, febreeze may work

Answer 2

Odor eaters are quite good. But if there's no room in your shoes for pads, go to a pet supplies store and buy some charcoal granules -- they're sold with the fish-tank stuff. Make packets of charcoal in 2 old socks, or create small bundles with paper towels and tape. Put one packet in each shoe for a few days, or at night if you have to wear the shoes during the day. I haven't used charcoal for shoes, but it's the ingredient in Odor Eaters that takes away odors. I did use it to de-stink a refrigerator, and it really worked.

Answer 3

I've used boric acid for smelly feet... maybe try putting some in your shoes to see if it helps.

Answer 4

Just add some arm & hammer baking soda, and leave over night, This will remove the odor.
