The Ugg is a boot that is comfortable and comfortable to wear. Unfortunately, Ugg shoes can also smell bad, especially after long-term use. Luckily, deodorizing Ugg shoes is easy, and keeping them odor-free is even easier. After the Ugg boots are cleaned, try to take a little time to get rid of the smell.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Get Rid of Ugg Shoe Odors
Step 1. Put the baking soda and cornstarch in a small bowl in equal proportions
The dose of 2 teaspoons (10 grams) of each ingredient is enough. Baking soda and corn starch have odor-absorbing properties.
If you can't find cornstarch, use cornstarch instead. Don't use polenta flour because it's not the same
Step 2. Consider adding 2 or 3 drops of your favorite essential oil if you want a nice scent
Try a refreshing scent, like lavender, peppermint, or eucalyptus. Not only does tea tree oil smell fresh, it also has antibacterial properties.
Step 3. Mix the ingredients with a fork
Be sure to outline any lumps. If you're using essential oils, make sure they're evenly distributed throughout the baking soda and cornstarch.
Step 4. Sprinkle the mixture into the shoes
Try to use the same amount on each shoe. If Ugg shoes are pre-washed, make sure they are completely dry first.
Step 5. Grasp the boots by the ends, then shake them
This will allow the mixture to spread to the inside of the boot. Be sure to tilt the boot back and forth so that the mixture also gets into the toes.
Step 6. Let the mixture sit in the boots overnight
During that time, the baking soda and cornstarch will absorb any unpleasant odors. For very smelly Ugg shoes, allow the mixture to sit in the shoes for up to 24 hours.
Step 7. Remove the mixture by shaking it in the trash the next day
If the shoes still smell, repeat the above process. Keep in mind that some boots may not be salvageable.
Step 8. Repeat this process regularly
Try to get rid of the smell of Ugg shoes more often than cleaning them.
Method 2 of 3: Using Other Techniques to Eliminate Odors
Step 1. Use a small amount of baking soda or activated charcoal
Place 2 teaspoons (10 grams) of baking soda or activated charcoal in a small cloth bag or nylon stocking. Place the pouch inside the boot overnight. Then take it out the next day.
Like baking soda, activated charcoal will absorb odors. You can find them in the aquarium section of your pet store
Step 2. Leave 2 or 3 tea bags inside each boot overnight
You can use any type of tea you want, but consider a tea with a fresh aroma, such as peppermint. The tea bag will absorb unpleasant odors and leave a refreshing aroma.
Step 3. Lay down the dryer sheet overnight
This will help get rid of bad smells on the boots and leave a fresh scent. But use them with care, as many dryer sheets can also cause allergic reactions. If you have asthma, you probably shouldn't do this.
Step 4. Insert Sneaker Balls (air freshener for shoes) into each boot after you take off the shoes
Like baking soda, Sneaker Balls will also absorb bad odors. This will also prevent odors from building up.
Step 5. Try using rubbing alcohol
Wet a cotton swab with rubbing alcohol and then wipe the inside of the shoe. Be careful not to wet the inside of the shoe too much. Alcohol will kill all odor-causing bacteria.
Method 3 of 3: Prevent Odor
Step 1. Keep the Ugg shoes dry, and don't wear them when they are wet
Wet Ugg shoes are smelly Ugg shoes. When water gets into the boots, odor-causing bacteria will start to grow and thrive. If your boots stink, allow them to dry completely before putting them back on.
Consider spraying waterproof protection on your boots. This will keep it dry during the winter
Step 2. Put on the shoes alternately
Don't wear the same shoes every day. Instead, leave it on for up to 24 hours before you put it back on. This will dry out the shoes and give off an odor. If you enjoy wearing Uggs every day, consider buying two pairs, so you can alternate between them.
Step 3. Air the boots after putting them on
This will help your boots dry faster. Remember that wet Ugg shoes are smelly Ugg shoes. If your boots get wet while you're wearing them, place a piece of newsprint inside each boot after you take them off. Newsprint will absorb moisture and all odors.
Step 4. Change footwear frequently, especially after they start to smell
Consider buying footwear that is labeled "antimicrobial" or "prevent/absorb odors." This type of shoe sole is specially designed to prevent the accumulation of bacteria. This will help keep your boots odor free for longer.
Step 5. Wear socks with your Ugg shoes
The Ugg shoe manufacturer may recommend that the Ugg be worn without socks. Unfortunately, this allows sweat and bacteria to build up in the wool. Consider wearing boots with cotton or moisture-wicking socks. This will keep the inside of the boot dry and sweat free.
Step 6. Keep your feet odor free
If your feet tend to stink easily, consider washing them with an antibacterial soap. This will help kill odor-causing bacteria. If your feet tend to sweat, sprinkle some baby powder on your feet before putting on the boots. This will help absorb sweat.
