piusthedrcarve Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Googled it but got splitted recommendations: Washing machine vs. freezer. Liners are Intuition wrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ursle Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Methinks you mean washer vs dish washer, just like hats, dishwasher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surf Quebec Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I would contact intuition people and ask them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I use a vinegar and water mix. Let it soak, scrub with fingers inside the liner. Then rinse with clean water and scrub some more to minimize the vinegar smell. When you use a boot dryer for the first few times, the room will faintly smell like pickles! Which is still better than foot funk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piusthedrcarve Posted February 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 M Essentials Mirazyme Enzyme-Based Odor Eliminator, 8oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0000DYNSN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_UyuWwbEP00MRF Many recommend the above product for hand wash. I will give try tomorrow. Just pulled liners out from boots and removed foodbeds. Most of orders and wetness were from footbeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 On that note: Try to pull your footbeds/insoles after every day of riding. It's surprising how much moisture can be trapped under them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Donnelly Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 (edited) I use a boot dryer at the end of the day and overnight to get them dry for the next day. Have seen this "Boot Juice" deodorant but not tried . . . http://www.tognar.com/boot-juice-deodorant-must-ship-fedex-ground/ Edited February 15, 2016 by Pat Donnelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael.a Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Isopropyl alcohol aka rubbing alcohol. I use 95% diluted down to a 50/50 mix, soak, then air dry. Iso alcohol is the disinfectant and odor eliminator in your lysols, pinesols and fabreezes. Buy a gallon for a couple of bucks and it has a billion uses. I also use it for car detailing, de-icing, kitchen/bathroom cleaning etc etc etc. Never had much luck with the freezer option. Vinegar stinks. Washing machine sounds a tad rough on liners but never tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piusthedrcarve Posted February 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 (edited) Ok. I used the Mirazyme. Instead of doing it with hand wash, I mixed with water and put into a spray and applied on footbed and inside of liners and dried them in a warm temperature room. Smells are gone totally. I will leave them another day or two to dry completely. The product description reads it removes bacteria, mildew, and algae that cause bad order. So, I will be happy when I put my feet back into the liners. Yup. I will pull liners and footbed out and dry them after every ride. Thanks Corey. Thanks all for recommendations.

Corey Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Yup, getting those footbeds out and drying under them seems to be key. I like Michael's iso alcohol idea! I may try that next time I wash my liners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
