It all comes down to the return of polyester! Yes, ever since polyester left the Leisure Suit realm and made its way into performance fabrics (microfibers, yo!), I have been experiencing stinky, stinky workout clothing. I have a hiking shirt, a few of those Nike dri-fit running shirts, and cycling jerseys that retain (and seemingly amplify) odor in the armpit region. My sister has the same problem with her running stuff (we thought her cats were mad at her…well, they are, but they hopefully didn’t do this!). I’m fairly certain it’s not a genetic thing because I’ve read pros&cons on cycling jersey fabrics and this is one of the drawbacks of the polyester stuff (i.e. they retain odor). So…if my sis and I are not alone, how have people combated this? Add vinegar to the washing machine? Rub their pits with baking soda?? In all seriousness, if someone has found a way to rid the stench of excellence (not that it smells good…just that it is there because I’m taking steps to improve myself) from their clothing…I’m all ears.
