Quick answer
Use a targeted spray like those in the Aromatic Refresh Bundle to mist the inside of your shoes after each wear, then let them air out before storage.
Why shoe odor happens and how Sole~Pourri helps
Shoe odor is usually caused by bacteria and fungi that thrive in warm, moist environments. Sole~Pourri sprays use essential oils and a Fresh & Clean Formula to neutralize odors at the source without masking them with heavy synthetic perfumes.
The Aromatic Refresh Bundle includes versatile sprays that work on shoes, gym bags, and other fabric surfaces. This makes it a practical choice for anyone dealing with multiple odor sources.
How to freshen your shoes step by step
- Remove insoles and let shoes dry completely: Take out the insoles and place them separately. Let the shoes air out for 15–20 minutes after wearing so moisture evaporates. Common mistake: spraying into damp shoes can lock in moisture and make odor worse.
- Spray the inside of each shoe evenly: Hold the Sole~Pourri spray 6–8 inches from the opening and give 2–3 short bursts inside each shoe. Focus on the toe area and heel where odor builds up most. Common mistake: oversaturating the fabric can cause a damp feeling; a light mist is enough. If the spray leaves a wet spot, blot it gently with a dry cloth.
- Let shoes air out before storing: Leave the shoes in a well-ventilated area for 10–15 minutes after spraying so the formula can work and the essential oil scent can settle. Common mistake: putting shoes in a closed closet or bag immediately after spraying traps moisture and reduces effectiveness. For extra freshness, repeat this routine daily after each wear.
