My ski boots smell bad and ima be living in a dorm w a roommate. Is there any way I can like wash the inside of my liner so they don’t smell as bad? For football we used to throw dryer sheets in our cleats so maybe it’ll work for boots too?

I'm sure any foot odor product would work if you go to the store and look.

I use captoder for hockey gear and it works really good. Also make sure you're drying them every day

Pro

1- kill the fungal/bacterial culture in your liners
2 - buy wool ski socks and use a fresh pair every time you ski
3 - remove liner from shell and dry after every ski

In my experience 80% of the battle is making sure they dry out thoroughly after every time you ski. Taking the liners out and getting a cheap boot dryer helps. Then I get an antifungal spray and spray it in the liner every once in a while

Properly drying helps a ton, so start there. I have sweaty ass feet so I wash my liners 1-2 times a season by simply throwing them to washing machine.

You can hand wash them. I have used powder for climbing shoes in the past with some success. It’s basically baby powder. But yeah wetness will be the biggest battle.
