Every time I walk into my son’s room, it brings back old memories. Not because his room is decked out with sentimental hand-me-downs from his grandparents or great-grands or memoirs from past family reunions, but because the stinky smell reminds me of the locker room from my high school days. I graduated over 20 years ago, but the smell certainly hasn’t changed a bit. To help tame that smelly odor, hand a box of fabric softener dryer sheets to your teenager and have him slip a sheet into each of his sneakers and pairs of shoes. Once he’s done and has returned the box back to you, work your way to your DH and hand him the box so he can tame the odor in those work boots of his. Certainly they can use a little freshening too.

I think I'm the only person who thinks dryers sheets smell nasty. If you use dryer sheets in the dryer, be sure to clean the waxy build up in the dryer lint tray by running under water periodically. That build up is a cause of a lot of house fires.
To keep my hiking boots fresh I spray my feet with regular (under arm) deodorant and my boots. When I take off my boots, I spray them again. Deodorant kills germs. I don't think dryer sheets do.
i leave them in my sneakers and it works great.
Do you leave the sheets in when you put on your shoes ?
No, Brother Derek. You take them out, but I suppose it wouldn’t hurt anything if you left them in there:)
