Get the mildew (and smell) out of my shoes!

Asked by robmandu (21331points) October 20th, 2009

So, my bike shoes got wet. And I forgot about them and left them in a backpack for almost a week. Now they reek.

I tried dousing ‘em in Lysol and leaving ‘em outside in the sun for a couple of days. Little improvement.

Your suggestions for permanently eradicating the mildew?

P.S. I noted a couple of other mildew-related discussions on Fluther… but wasn’t swayed by most of the comments.
