Hmm fabreeze sounds like a good technique. I use foot powder before I put any shoes on, lavers or otherwise. I've found this really keeps them smelling decently. I have had some major athletes foot problems in the past, and this has been the only thing I could come up with. I may try fabreeze though.

i also put foot powder in mine before i play, but also, after i'm done, i spray the inside with Lysol disifectant spray. there is too much paint and dye on my shoes to wash them.......

I like them dirty. Shows how much you play. I play a lot indoors anyways so they don't really get dirty.

I use Axe: Phoenix on my stinky Lavers/G-units. Just shows that body spray that doesn't do well on your body, works well for your stinky feet. :wink:

But, I might go for some foot powder. I never did like to see powder on my insoles.

I've put my lavers through the washer and dryer, with bleach and the whole shabang, about 295732853758763 times. They've yet to screw up in any way.
