My gloves pong a bit. Is there anything that I can do to clean them. I presume I can't chuck them in the washing machine or the leather will be damaged.

One of my mates used to dump his smelly trainers in a vat of liquid nitrogen (-180C) to kill off the bacteria. He had a hard time explaining to his boss when he got caught though. Laughing

Febreeze Razz it gets rid of all smells, especially useful for teenagers who have been smoking dogy stuff in their parents house Wink

Was also useful for making my work shirt smell nice when I forgot to wash it for the weekend, again Embarassed

Just tell Wendy to make them clean.

If she fails, she doesn't know her place. Send her over to me for training.

Put them into a basin of mild luke warm soapy water, and give them a scrub with a soft brush, let them dry naturally and then work some leather food into them and they will be fine. It will take a few days for them to dry completely, and they will feel hard and brittle once they are dry but a good quality leather food such as mars Oil will soon restore them and the stink will also go.

I brought some new gloves before doing my very intense DAS and after a week of sweating like Michael.J Fox in a mine field for a week they minged like nothing you could imagine, tryed fabreeze but there is still a faint stink 5/6 months after Confused i was afraid of ashing them in case the lining gets all messed up Sad

Bah! That's the thing - I resent having to wash my hands just because they stink.

Go to a shoe store and get some anti feet pong spray. I used to use it on my trainers after I had been running. It should do the trick Wink
