Killing 5 Finger Foot Funk

Posted by on October 1, 2011 in Health | 1 comment

Since buying toe socks isn’t my style, I’ve been trying to find an alternative to washing my 5 finger shoes every 2-3 days (as I’m running out of reasons to wash clothes…pun not intended).

After googling the interwebs, I came across this tip by Get The Funk Out:

Efferdent Tablets This product is normally used to cut through bacteria within dentures, but doubles as a deodorant for Vibram FiveFingers. The Vibram website recommends using this product to eliminate tough odors that develop within the FiveFingers. Place Vibrams within a large tupperware container, fill with water and add 1-2 tablets. Allow 1-2 hours to pass before removing the Vibrams to air dry.

You can pick this up at your local Walmart, although you might want to explain why you’re buying it to the cashier and spectators lest you receive awkward glances. ;-)

Update (10/3): Reduced image size. Thanks for the tip Bradley!

    I’ll keep that in mind. I think my wife wants a pair of these.  Also, unless it’s just a problem with Chrome, this photo isn’t resized to fit the post width.  It’s hanging into the right sidebar.
