This does not work. I have tried it several times. If anything, it made my freezer smell, and the smell in the shoes did not go away.

Why would you do this?
#1 its not going to take the smell away.
#2 As far a bacterial growth, freezing just slows down their metabolism, or makes them go dormant.

After you stink up your icecream samiches the condition of your shoes is going to be virtually unchanged.

Edit to elaborate
