Cycling clothes are expensive, and their fabrics are meant to manage sweat and body temperatures. Normal detergents include all kinds of extras to make them smell nicer, at the cost of degrading the functional aspects of your cycling clothes.I use Nikwax Basewash for all my cycling clothes to allow them to perform properly against my skin, but while still cleaning them properly.

Works wonders on wicking materials. This is one of the best cleaners I’ve found to neutralize smells and remove stains.Definitely worth The cost. You don’t need much. So it goes a long way

Nikwax base wash is an excellent laundry cleaning product for so-called tech wear garments which contain polyester, nylon and other man-made fabrics. It is also great for cotton and cotton blends. It is designed to preserve these fabrics. Only a cap full (the inner cap) which is about a tablespoon and a half is needed to properly administer soap in a standard clothes washer. As a result, it is very economical, even though the initial price is intimidating. Clothes washed in Nikwax will have a very faint, pleasant odor which is from the deodorizing and anti-bacterial properties of the product. Setting the washing machine on 'gentle wash' is adequate, as well as on medium spin or less (low spin recommended). Clothes should be hung to dry. We have been using this product for years and are very satisfied. Thank you to Amazon for carrying the larger format which is very economical.

Il prodotto visualizzato nell'immagine, anche nella mail della survey, non è quello che viene venduto e di cui si parla nella descrizione. Chiaramente è stato un errore mio non approfondire e quindi ho acquistato un prodotto che non avrei voluto. Pazienza. Per una cosa così piccola ho anche evitato di esercitare il diritto di recesso ma se riusciste a cambiare l'immagine sarebbe bello

I bought this product to remove an odor from my Keen Newport sandals (waterproof leather ~$100 per pair for those not familiar, so don't just want to throw them out). The sandals became so foul smelling this year that I couldn't stand to wear them - especially if in a closed area like a car or indoors. I had already tried washing them with regular detergent multiple times, putting them outside (100 degree + weather) to try and "air them out", and waiting a week or two for the smell to subside....the smell got a little better, but there was still a lingering odor, and as soon as I wore them once, they were as offensive as before they had been washed.After searching all over the web for ideas, talking to others who had Keen sandals and finally contacting Keen (manufacturer of the sandals), I learned about this product. It was actually recommended by Keen as one of the ways to remove the odor. The product was hard to find locally (actually impossible and I live in a VERY large metro area w/ several million people within 30 minutes in every direction), so I checked Amazon and they had it. I ordered it and used it on both pair of sandals and it worked as advertised. The odor was completely gone and has stayed away for about a month now. I wear one of the two pair almost daily, so it definitely helped. My son plays football and had some receiver gloves that had an equally offensive odor to foot odor (actually worse), so I tried it on them....worked again, although the stink only stayed gone a week or so....they need to be washed again. Since it worked on that, I tried it on his neoprene sleeve that covers his helmet chinstrap...worked again. I would say it should work on anything that comes in contact with your skin and absorbs sweat / bacteria, resulting in an offensive odor. It's worked on everything I've tried it on so far anyway.Overall, great product. Only complaints are the price for such a small amount of it - wish it were available in a larger container and not as expensive (it takes 1/2 bottle to wash the sandals once) and the difficulty finding it (not available locally so you almost have to buy online and pay shipping).
