My Full Tilts don't smell, they have some anti-microbial shit or something in there.  It works alright.

i've never had that problem, but i would recommend maybe cleaning/washing your liners after your last day

I would do what was said above about cleaning the liner. Also use some i think it is called dr scholls shoe deodorizer.

take your liners out of your shells and your footbeds out of your liners every night after skiing. it will air them out and let them dry better

yeah always take your liners out, they get wet
also look and see if water is leaking through the toes in your shells, it happened with my boots and i put some duct tape on the inside to seal the hole and they don't get wet/smelly anymore

put dryer sheets and foot powder in there after your done skiing that helps mine. Also, a little febreeze wouldn't hurt

take your liners out after each day so they can dry. it will reduce smell quite a bit.

if you have a boot dryer put dryer sheets over the part where the air comes out. and if you dont have a boot dryer just put dryer sheets in after you use them. it works really well

or, you can choose to be an ass like me and let the smell build up and then sell them at a swap someplace. but that is pretty mean.

i pull the liners out and put some boot dryers in them but they still smell, which sucks for me.
