Why do slippers and house shoes start to smell?
Slippers keep your feet warm. In a closed style with a thick lining, sweat can also become trapped. Bacteria on the skin break down components of sweat; this can lead to foot odour. That odour can linger in the insole and lining. As a result, a pair may sometimes start to smell again as soon as you put them on, even if you’ve just washed your feet. So be sure to check both your feet and the inside of your slippers. Read also about what you can do to combat sweaty feet
How to use PediFris® Classic in your slippers
A small amount is sufficient. Follow the instructions for use on the jar.
Sprinkle into your slippers
Use approximately half a teaspoon of PediFris® Classic per slipper.
Spread the powder
Sprinkle the powder over the insole and the lining.
Put on your slippers
The powder works whilst being worn, inside the slipper and on the foot.
Repeat and maintain
Use it daily for the first week. After that, once a week is usually sufficient.
Enjoy putting your slippers on again
Coming home, taking off your shoes and slipping your feet into fresh, soft slippers. Sitting on the sofa for a while and relaxing, without any unpleasant odours spoiling the moment. That lovely, well-cared-for feeling is what it’s all about. Maintain that lovely feeling with a regular routine. Look after the shoes you wear during the day and maintain your slippers with PediFris® Classic according to the instructions for use.
Four habits for fresher slippers
Allow the lining to air
After wearing your slippers, place them in a well-ventilated area. If necessary, alternate between two pairs.
Let your feet breathe now and then
Take your slippers off for a moment if your feet get very warm. This gives your feet and the lining a break.
Start with clean socks
Wash your feet and dry them thoroughly, including between the toes. Put on clean socks every day and change them when they become damp.
Take care of your other shoes too
Don’t limit your routine to your slippers. Odours can also come from the shoes you wear during the day.
Washing smelly slippers: follow the care label
Can your pair be put in the washing machine? If so, follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding temperature, cycle and drying. A washable outer layer does not automatically mean that the lining, adhesive layer or sole can withstand every wash.
Allow washed slippers to dry completely before wearing them again. Remove any removable insoles if the design allows. This allows the inside and the soles to air out as well.
For woollen, leather or non-washable slippers, follow the manufacturer’s care instructions. Do not simply use hot water or harsh cleaning products. Airing them regularly remains a practical first step.
Do you also suffer from clammy feet in your slippers?
Do your feet and socks tend to get wet quickly? If so, in addition to your slipper routine, you can use an antiperspirant for the skin on your feet. Apply PediSpray® to clean, dry and undamaged skin, following the instructions on the label.
You can combine PediSpray® and PediFris® Classic: use the spray on your feet and the powder in your shoes or slippers.
Frequently asked questions about smelly slippers
Can all slippers be put in the washing machine?
No. Always check the care label or the manufacturer’s care instructions. The lining, sole or adhesive layer may require different care to the outer fabric.
What should I do with slippers that mustn’t be washed?
Allow them to air thoroughly after each use and follow the care instructions for the material. If the insoles are removable, care for them separately according to the instructions.
Why do my slippers smell even though my feet are clean?
Odours can linger in the lining and insole. Simply washing your feet is not always enough: also look after the slippers you put back on afterwards.
Can I also use PediFris® Classic in slippers?
Yes, Classic is also intended for slippers worn regularly. For delicate materials, first check the care instructions for your slippers and follow the instructions for use when applying the powder.
Do I need to replace my slippers if the odour persists?
First check whether the inside can still be cleaned and maintained properly. If the lining is worn or damaged, replacing it may be more practical than cleaning it repeatedly.
When should I seek advice about my feet?
Ask your GP for advice if, in addition to odour, you also experience persistent itching, pain, sores or flaking, or if self-care does not help. These symptoms require attention separate from the care of your slippers.
