Original Shoe Deodorisers, Banana-Shaped Fresheners - Reusable

​I have a friend who uses these for her climbing shoes, and after seeing how well they worked for her, I just had to get some. Straight out of the pack, they smell amazing - a really fresh, natural scent that is a huge relief for my sensory sensitivities. I put them into my La Sportiva Tarantula boulder climbing shoes immediately, they freshened them up perfectly with their natural ingredients and fit really snug inside. I actually used the carabiner provided to clip through the loops of my shoes too to keep them all together! Which is a really cool trick i discovered and is defo worth doing so they dont slip out - its probably what its for but i feel very smart for finding it out on my own! Lol! ​The texture is worth mentioning too. They have a bead-like material inside that feels really cool and satisfying to touch, and the outside cotton skin is surprisingly soft. As someone who is neurodivergent and deals with high anxiety, these small tactile details make the product feel like more than just a deodoriser; it’s actually quite calming to handle while I'm prepping my gear. ​My friend has had this exact brand for four months, and even with us climbing 3 times a week for 2-3 hours a session, her shoes still smell fresh so i know just how durable and effective they are. For just under £15, knowing they will last that long makes them amazing value for money. If you're a frequent climber who cares about sensory details and keeping gear fresh, these are a must-have.

They do the job, the scent isn't over powering

Fantastic purchase. I've tried everything to get rid of old boot smell . These did the trick. My son is so pleased even he remembers to put them in. They are neat and easy to use. They fit right in his football boots.

I originally saw these on the popular tv show and thought they were worth a try. Oh my was i surprised. These are amazing and anyone with a pair of shoes needs them! I work on my feet all day and these have made a noticeable difference to the smell not just in my shoe but in the entire cupboard. I swap these out between work shoes and dog walk shoes (that often get wet) and they dry them out as well as leaving a great smell. I love the uniqueness of the bananas slowly changing colour as they age so you know when to replace. Such a great invention.

It doesn't actually smell of anything, and doesn't make your shoes smell nice. But boy does it soak up all the bad smells in your shoes. Also lasts a LOT longer than what the packet states (in my experience anyway). I use these for my badminton shoes and no problems whatsoever. Wholly recommended.

Effectively work but no use when left outside

Not had long enough to comment on effectiveness. Came well packaged. Nice that they are tied together so you can’t loose one. The large size makes them easy to use and swap from shoes. Seem to be working well.

Sono rimasto stupito da quanto bene facciano il loro lavoro queste banane! Fantastiche! Niente più odori e scarpe sempre asciutte, wow!

Makes my stinky climbing shoes smell less gross

Son grandes y recogen bien la humedad de los guantes y aparte forma original.

My husband's work boots were - just yuck. The whole back entry where we store our shoes became a very unpleasant place to walk through. I thought I'd give these a try and they worked fabulously. He suggested we order another set and I will likely do that in the near future. They did not mask the smell, they removed it, leaving the entryway much fresher-smelling. They were a nice strong material so they have held up well. I may try adding some essential oil to them to see if they can still help a bit on lesser projects. I was really impressed and would recommend them to anyone.

Not as good as I thought. It smells pretty weird and it tends to get the bad smell of the shoes and hold it as well, creating a nasty overall smell. It didn’t do much for my shoes…
