The gym I used to work for tried out an ozone air purifier for reducing shoe odor. It did not make any discernible improvements to funk in the vicinity of the shoe racks, let alone in the shoes themselves. This was even running at full tilt.
Regarding toxicity or other negative effects, the ozone's own odor was very noticeable and employees did complain about mild nasal irritation. We retired the unit after one season of use due to lack of effectiveness and high energy costs.
I hate to come down as really negative here, but the general consensus (both peer-reviewed and anecdotal) is that ozone air purifiers are both ineffective for most general applications and potentially harmful.
