I killed my partner and moved on to a new one. I did this until I found one who's feet smelled better than the pile of bodies.
PS, does anyone want a pile of bodies, cheap?

Unles you are really fond of the smell of the fungus amungus, try pouring tea tree oil into the shoe. That stuff will kill anything and covers up a lot of unwashed.

Ga4 christ sake if you are afraid of getting a dickname you are in the wrong place. Hanging around the scummunity campground is assing to get some culture put in ya. I know very few women who can't wait to wash their feet after climbing and even fewer men who don't have a sense of pride about the state of their shoes. Even as far as it creating a peculiar social strata, as pointed out above. Though I'm sure that you conceive his infraction as a great forbearance against your personal code of hygiene, as close as I can tell he is a man and the only thing that changes our behavior is the thing between your legs and the nagging lips that make us listen to it. Outside of that fact we have no adversion to cleanliness. If you gave any attention to the climbing mentioned it requires enough energy to make more than a meal and rest a waste of time and resources. Returning to your gym example, and I mean this as if it was said outside of this place, you might be acting like a bit of a princess and need to accept that not everyone will attempt to maintain on your level. The best you can hope for is that he will meet you half way. If you even considered climbing with him instead of seeking to make him viewed in a negative light by those you considered would care about such a trifle.

You guys are something else. I don't think it was out of line to ask what to say to someone about their feet. I am not the only one with a problem with it. I am the one who has been helping him out, everyone else exits for fresher air! I am not a princess, I have no issues with getting down in the mud snd sweating on a wall. Just think people men included can wash with soap & water on a regular basis.

Well, whatever tattooed_climber. You got the scoop on me. Knowing what I can and can't do based on my hygiene levels. Wow, I hope to be as omniscient as you someday.

Climbing shoes can be washed. I washed both my pairs recently -- synthetic 5-10s and leather Boreals and both came out of the wash with stickier rubber and less stench.
I soaked them first. Washed with regular detergent on a normal warm water cycle and put them in with an old towel to cut down on the bumping around. I let them air dry for a week (I did it over the Christmas Holidays when I was visiting my folks and couldn't climb for a week anyway).
I think if I knew a climber whose feet reeked that bad I might talk about washing my shoes within ear shot of them. If they don't get the hint I might say something more direct. BO/hygene is a touchy subject though!

Thanks, I wash mine and they are sticker and last longer. If I say something to him, hopefully he won't take it as a knock. Apparently IT IS a touchy subject, especially to those who don't know what soap & water look like. My how offended they get when body oder is mention. Nevermind how offensive they are to those around them.

Next time you visit your local gym ask them if they have ever considered having a worst smelling shoe contest. Usually they're for the crowd at a comp. Much like life on the farm you either get used to it or it'll bug you more every day.

ya know, im really surprised ive never seen any of you stinky ass feet mf'ers use the little stuffed feet on a string things. i have a pair and they work great. they are stuffed full of cedar shavings, ya stuff em in your shoes when you arent using them, and they stay dry and smell like a gerbil cage instead of running off on their own when you arent looking. just watch your back if you climb with a gay partner.
