How to Keep Your Shoes Fresh
From the blogger: "Do you have smelly shoes that stink up a whole room? Avoid the embarrassment with these easy ways to keep your shoes smell fresh! Sometimes shoes smell while you’re wearing them and make even your feet smell bad. A good rule of thumb is to make sure your feet are clean and dry before wearing shoes. Also try and wear socks (preferably cotton) every time you put your shoes on and don’t wear the same pair of shoes two days in a row. Use these tips to keep your shoes staying fresh and dry all the time and they’ll never reach that stinky phase."

I swear by the tea bag method. It's always worked well for my gym shoes but I'd try some of these other methods too. Most importantly though, you should try to prevent the smelly shoes by wearing socks and dry shoes. Shoes from the gym or everymorning run can get damp from sweat and stink.
