When it comes to drying the shoes, one time I use a newspaper to try to dry shoes, but the ink bled out and colored the shoe badly, it was miscolored and stained by the wet ink that had seeped, I think just paper towel or ripped up cloth.. for example I chop up a old blanket or a bed sheet whenever they begin to fray, and I cut them into squares then use them for cleaning and drying and wiping and soaking stuff, I think that could be a good idea but its my opinion I think that newspaper might stain stuff because in the because of the ink
As mainly a road runner, this is my formula: normally a humid cloth is enough to deal with the outside of the shoe; to deal with the inner moisture and bad smell, one or two days in a room with a dehumidifier does the job. Important advice is to always take the insoles out when drying and cleaning your shoes.😁✌
I could definitely show my trail shoes more love, my road shoes don't seem to get dirty enough for major regular cleaning. I do like the toothbrush suggestion, as I have used it before myself, though I'm not so sure on the toothpaste one! Great video Anna, thank you very much...
I use a spray on shoe protector on all my shoes, running, cycling or otherwise. Genuinely seems to keep them cleaner and makes them easier to clean. Cherry Blossom is the one I use.
Such great information! Thank you so much for sharing this video! In my experience, when washing my running shoes toothpaste is better than using other things.
Thanks for the reminder. I've been meaning to clean my running shoes for ages. Normally i wait for the mud to dry and brush it off, but today i put a drop of Nikwax tech wash in the boot buddy and gave them a proper scrub.
Household vinegar for stinky shoes (and clothes). Got that tip from a pro runner and it works, kills all smelly bacteria. I now add a bit of household vinegar in every wash and all clothes come out smelling great, even at lowest temperatures. For shoes, add some vinegar to lukewarm water and soak the shoes for a while. Goes deeper than baking soda (and is also ridiculously inexpensive).
I use an old washing up sponge and a very small squirt of laundry liquid in like warm water. Rub the shoes gently with the wet sponge until more or less clean then run under the cold tap to rinse. Leave to dry naturally. It's worthwhile having more than one pair of shoes in use at this time of year as it can take a couple of days for shoes to dry.
Boot buddy I can’t recommend enough although mine has started to smell now so now having to use Oder spray to get rid of the pong. I do also walk through deep puddles before getting home.
A video whose time has come. Well done Anna. My wife said it's time for a sneaker funeral at our house my basement is filled with old soldiers. Never put sneakers in the the dryer, I ruined a pair of nearly new Hokas year before last.
Wear 2 pairs of sock like and its unlikely the odors will affect your shoes, i'm a low sweater in the foot mind. Also, I machine washed my zoom fly 3 after a muddy run, on low temp (30'C), dried on a radiator turned down to low temp, they are perfectly fine performance wise (tested again a new pair to verify). Not sure about washing other brands but Nike seem to wash well if done on low temp.
I tend to clean my shoes by walking through tall wet grass. Obviously only when tall wet grass is available but it tends to be available when the roads and tracks are most wet and muddy, so usually not a problem. You will get wet feet though unless you have waterproof shoes, but it works really well for getting rid of mud before taking the shoes into the house, or putting them in the boot of your car. For smelly shoes a really efficient trick is to take the insoles out and wipe them with a 50/50 solution of water and white vinegar, and then leave them to dry out before putting them back in the shoes. Works every time and cost next to nothing.
I once had a pair of shoes that didn't dry properly and picked up a persistent funk. Shoe Rescue Sport was the only product that worked. It's a slightly minty powder that you sprinkle and leave. A+
More than 2.... I do do a lot of shoe reviews for the channel though. Keep your eyes peeled for our latest trail shoes round up coming very soon! 👀 (Anna)
@@runningchannel also I’m the same Amy that has Stinky running shoes!! They smell slightly better than they did but I’m due a new pair in the new year so from then on I will make a greater effort to keep them smelling better :-) also winter training is less sweaty
As soon as I get home I remove the insoles and spray off all the mud with the jet nozzle attachment on the hose - blasts it all off really fast. Then leave to dry. Stuff with paper or I just leave them in the sun (if there is any) or by the fire.
Have ruined many a pair of shoes in the past by putting them in the washing machine 🙈. I now use my boot buddy...the radiator and old newspaper 👍🏻....oh and bicarbonate of soda for de-whiffing them. Works a treat. 🤗
Nope. Putting green tea bags won't remove the smell completely. My friend tried this and whenever he takes off his stinky sneakers his socks smell terrible.😂
As a triathlete who runs barefoot on short to olympic distance I have the problem of smelly shoes. I solve this issue by puttning the shower mussle in the shoes holding them upside down in the shower and washing them from the inside out.
Your voice sounds like you want to laugh so bad :D I mean, I get it, we are talking about putting cat litter in your shoes :D great video! I personally wash my shoes by hand, usualy just the outsole, a lot of people in that post also said, they dont wash their shoes at all...but I keep mine in my room, so I dont want dirt falling of everywhere
Amazing. You can put wet running shoes in the extractor of cheap Chinese washers. You need to protect them with some old clothes. Lesson learned in Costa Rica from my Costa Rican friend, Please note the shoes were not washed in hot water.
I always wait for the mud to dry. Then bang them off and use baby wipes to clean them. Use these on road shoes too to get the residual dirt and dust off and it keeps em fresh too. Never, ever in the washing machine. Even at low temps, it's the detergent that will affect the material/glues used in production.
Does anyone continue running and even complete your target time/distance when there’s a heavy downpour halfway through your session and you’re caught unprepared?
I've read freezing your shows will kill the bacteria thus making your shoes less smelly. I've used the trick of putting cat litter in a sock and then putting it in your shoe to control odor as well. I'm not sure putting baking soda directly in your shoe is a good idea. It may work for odor, but you won't be able to get it all out so the next time you run you will have a paste form in your shoe.
@@runningchannel Well, I have multiple pairs of shoes. Usually they take a full day to dry, but it doesn’t really matter because I just use a different shoe the next day.
Hey Eric, thanks for watching. 25 minutes for 8k is pretty fast! We've got a great video for how to run a fast 10k which you could apply to the 8k distance: czcams.com/video/Qrmx_Zt9oo0/video.html Let us know how you get on :-)
I'll hosepipe them if I need to, or wash them in the sink (as long as my wife's out!) I'll rarely put them in the washing machine, maybe if I've retired them to knocking about shoes. The insoles come out after almost every run to help the shoes dry out. If they haven't got some mud on them you've not really been for a run 😂🏃
So if I was to wash my trainers in the washing machine at 30 deg C they would potentially fall apart from the heat. Yet put your feet in them and go out for a run in a hot country then they’ll be fine, or will they fall apart in the heat? What do people in hot countries run in. All those Kenyan distance runners and Kona triathletes. It defiantly gets above 30 there.
Thanks for watching Ian and this is definitely a good point. It's not just the heat in the washing machine that can cause a problem - it's soaking them in water which can damage the adhesives.
Walked past you with my dog this afternoon near Hollow Ponds as you were recording this, Anna. I heard you say ‘bunging’ and immediately recognised your voice. 😂 I’m a big fan of leaving muddy shoes to dry and then using an old fashioned boot brush to brush them clean in the back garden.
There's is also one good way to get rid of the moisture overnight: Pour dry rice grains, just warm them up a bit before use. Note: this is not a DIY brown rice...
My trail shoes get grumpy if they’re clean. New pairs sit on the floor and whimper until I take them out on a trail to get dirty. Only natural bodies of water for washing off are acceptable to them.
I never wash my clothes or dry my shoes. I try my best to make anyone close to my or trying to overtake, to start vomiting or plain fainting ! The key is to be in front of the pack at the startingline. Headwind prefered :-D
I scrub my dirty shoes without soap then put them in spin dryer after that I air dry it not sun dry (it will affect the shoe glue) before I wear it when it stink I just sprinkle it with some foot powder or spray a bit alcohol HAHAH
@@runningchannel I haven't had any issues, but I obviously haven't been very scientific about it either. Just note that a rather small dose of bleach should be sufficient to kill the bacteria. :)
Haha, I know what you mean, but I once had a pair that actually cracked because of the dried on mud - so keeping them clean does help them last longer. - Mary
@@runningchannel haha ok damn that's a bummer. Speaking of dirty shoes: still think on's cloudventure peak in only white was a bold move. if you can sell a trail running shoe in only white, then you know you made it 😂. pretty sad it's also available in black now. I think it was an amazing idea haha
I lay my shoes on a dehumidifier after every run. My shoes never smell bad. You should never use detergent on them. It will degrade the adhesives and the foam.
I’ve noticed something. As soon as you upload a video, there’s an instant load of dislikes. Can’t help thinking there’s a bit of skullduggery going on. Jealousy is a terrible thing.
I honestly didn't expect my clothes and shoes to smell literally like a DEAD ANIMAL. omg probably the worst smell of my like! I CANT GET THE SMELL OUT OF MY DUCK BOOTS. I went caving and I walked through muddy waters, and I realized the next day my entire house stunk. I mean like OLD DEAD ANIMALS, AND DIRTY GYM SOCKS. so I took clothes to cleaners, and the person working their almost told me to leave! lol. Now I can't get smell out of boots.
If your shoes can't make it through a quick cycle cold wash, they must be cheap. Good quality branded shoes are built to last in all weather conditions.
Having an old or spare pair to give the main ones a chance to dry thoroughly before the next run. I think you can use table salt instead of baking powder but need to get it all out as it can be abrasive.

Instead of newspaper, I use a microfibre travel towel. Super absorbent, and also reusable.
Really good shout!
That's a great idea!
yeah news paper ink bleeds through and i’m sure that’s not healthy for your feet on the long run

I needed this!! Perfect timing!
So glad! Hope you enjoyed it
I use dryer sheets in my everyday run shoes to stop the odor. I've also had mud and dirt in my trail shoes for a year. Finally cleaned them out.
Thanks for watching Junior and great tip re dryer sheets :-)
Great tips! Definitely gonna try them out
Are there any in particular that you're gonna try yourself?
I use an old washing up sponge and a very small squirt of laundry liquid in like warm water. Rub the shoes gently with the wet sponge until more or less clean then run under the cold tap to rinse. Leave to dry naturally.
It's worthwhile having more than one pair of shoes in use at this time of year as it can take a couple of days for shoes to dry.
Definitely good to have shoes in rotation, Michael. Thanks for the tip!
Thank you very much❤🙏🏼... The first step worked for me and the shoes got clean after using your first method...
Blimey. Who knew there was this many suggestions! Everyday is a school day :D
Boot buddy I can’t recommend enough although mine has started to smell now so now having to use Oder spray to get rid of the pong. I do also walk through deep puddles before getting home.

More than 2.... I do do a lot of shoe reviews for the channel though. Keep your eyes peeled for our latest trail shoes round up coming very soon! 👀 (Anna)
Of course it would be rank to use my toothbrush to clean my running shoes. That’s why I use my girlfriends 🤣
Hahaha!
This explains why you have a girlfriend and I do not. Because you are savage right onnn ma man
Thanks Anna. Glad you washed them in the bathtub and not the kitchen sink like I saw in another video !
Haha! Glad you found the video helpful 😊
You covered everything I do! Except if they're really stinky you can remove the insoles and wash those by hand
Awesome, good to hear! And thanks for the tip on washing the insoles by hand :-)
Wow thanks so much! I have been wanting to wash my Hoka and I have 3 pairs.i don't want it getting destroyed in the washing machine 🥰
Glad we could help!
My year 2 teacher melted her running shoes in the wash. That was 21 years ago... she told us never wash trainers as it can ruin them
Oh no!! That's why we say not to put them in the wash. You just never know!
@@runningchannel also I’m the same Amy that has Stinky running shoes!! They smell slightly better than they did but I’m due a new pair in the new year so from then on I will make a greater effort to keep them smelling better :-) also winter training is less sweaty
The boot buddy is brilliant. It lives in my kit bag and is great removing Hainault Forest from my shoes . A tooth brush would take way to long.
That's great to know, Den! I've also used an old washing brush with a bucket, but the boot buddy is obviously much easier to transport :-)
@@runningchannel definitely one fill will normally be enough to clean one shoe. As long as I t’s not too muddy 😂.
Summer cleaning tip - go for a run in pouring rain 😀. For muddy trail shoes, Boot buddy is great!
Another fantastic idea, thanks Barbara! A bit like a "pre-clean" lol
A good soak in a bucket of water with dettol laundry cleanser or Milton fluid before giving them a scrub and a hose off works well!
Yep, Dettol sounds like a good shout, thanks for sharing :-)
As soon as I get home I remove the insoles and spray off all the mud with the jet nozzle attachment on the hose - blasts it all off really fast. Then leave to dry. Stuff with paper or I just leave them in the sun (if there is any) or by the fire.

Wash in the washing machine at 30C and air dry. I wash my running shoes every 50 to 100 km and have never had any problem.
Would love to hear Ana's voice in a podcast while running. It is time to launch a podcast!!!!
I could listen to Anna talking all day
I read to put green tea bags inside of stinky wet shoes. What do you think?
Nope. Putting green tea bags won't remove the smell completely. My friend tried this and whenever he takes off his stinky sneakers his socks smell terrible.😂
Stinky shoes + tea bags= lovely!
Ah great tip Roy, thank you!
Yup I learned the hard way.. I wasn’t very smart and decided to put my shoes in the washing machine and they got ruined. They were new too 😢

washing machine! Low temperatur! If the radiator is luke warm i'll dry them on top of that.Done it for years. Works.
Rinsing in muddy loch, stream or pond results in really, really stinky shoes.
Who has newspapers here in the 21st century?
For mud: let it dry, run it off
For smell: run through mud, let it dry, shake the dirt out the inside, run it off 😂
Haha, great Mario thanks for the tips!
Just eliminate sugar and all sweets, eat healthy and your sweat wont stink, including shoes.
If you sweat a lot they'll still smell "Swampy".
Of course diet would help with the "rot"/"dead animal" smell but they would still stink
What i useally do is to take out the insoles and put them in the washer, that's what gets most of the smell and moisture
Well that was useless.
