Mildew smell inside gloves ?

[MNsnwdrift]

Sorry didn't know where else to post this question.....
I get such a mildew smell inside my snowmobile gloves after they get warm and damp. I try washing them in the washing machine and then put them on a heated boot dryer for a few days so they are completely dry and then as soon as they are wet or damp again that smell is back.
How do I get rid of that smell ?
Thanks a bunch !!

New gloves! You had to know some goof was gonna post this answer.
I've had the same thing. I bought some gloves with the removable liners so that the liners can be washed. Seems to do the trick. Don't know of any way of getting the smell out of the pair you have though.

This should warrant some interesting responses Like "keep your thumb our of your *** prior to wearing".

I was gonna say quit using your whole hand in the parking lot before you ride.

Or pack some TP so you aren't using your hand in the woods.

you have to dry them after every use..leave anything damp and wet in a dark place and it will smell bad.

Seriously though...you have to really quit sniffing them to start with! And remember is it smells dont eat it!

You can try washing them in sportsman wash (U can get at any hunting supply sporting goods type of store. Mix in some Oxy clean with it and it will help. It is real tough to get this out. Use klotz oil and keep near the exhaust..that will sweeten them up.

Last but not least...dip in Diesel fuel!

try soaking them in a solution of "Enzyme" and water. stuff Im thinking of is sold in pet section of most stores. the stuff will eliminate cat urine smells if used right, so should take care of the problem

One there washed and dry try this. Febreze works its way into the fabric; its effects therefore linger for quite a while

Wouldn't suggest febreze.

Bad things happen when you wash clothes in that.

Ever smell hockey gloves?

There's no way around it.

mix up a 10:1 solution of water/bleach

Dip your gloves in that and let dry...........


Problem solved
