Will this one work to kill bacteria in shoes?

Yes, it definitely kills something on smelly shoes! I have used it on several pairs. It didn't get rid of 100% of the odor, but I noticed a big improvement. It's also just the right size to fit inside my shoe, which is great.

Im not sure how far this would reach in some shoes, but research suggest you may need as much as 45 minutes totally filling a shoe to sanitize.Sunlight is a good source that I would try to add with this to get the most results. There are models sold on Amazon just for shoes and if you are dealing with a issue such as diabetes where you must have best odds of great results those are the only ones I would feel comfy in a important purchase.

Sure, it will work on all leathers. But I'd find a shoe polish that already contains conditioner as well as the color of the shoe. Just my thoughts. Some other really good products to also consider are: Bee Kind or Saphir.

no, absolutely not; this just strictly vacuum seals dry goods in a canning jar; it will NOT kill bacteria

I didn't use it on boots, but I would think it would work, because ankle boots are so similar to shoes. It really worked for my shoes.

Sure. It would definitely do the trick. However, I would recommend another product that would work better for that goal. I would use Huberd's Shoe Grease, if it's black leather.

It does not. I put it on a pair of boots and it was very ineffective. The problem is that shoes flex when you walk in them. In any spots there is flex the product will flake off and not work at all. Also if your shoes touch anything (just from common movement) it will brush off quite easily in those spots. On my boots (which were much stiffer on the outside then your tennis shoes will likely be) any spots that flexed were no longer waterproof within 2-3 days, and any spots that brushed anything took about a week to 10 days for the product to be ineffective.Also as mentioned by another user it will leave a cloudy white residue on anything it is applied to.

Possibly. I bought it to remove a stain caused by my blue jeans rubbing on my tan leather cross body bag and it didn't really remove it. Blue jean dye is synthetic indigo whereas shoe polish is a mix of natural and synthetic materials, including naphtha, turpentine, dyes, and gum arabic. Both substances have been rubbed into the grain of the leather over time, repeatedly, and from my experience, the leather milk only took off surface staining and didn't go deep into the grain. I would give it a 50% chance of success. Hope that helps.

I would think so! It is really strong stuff. I put it under my orthotics to hold in place in my shoes. The stuff is so sticky I don't think they will ever be coming out. Good stuff!

I haven't used this product because I cured my plantar fasciitis by wearing a slip on shoe in the house. I found that the condition was aggravated by walking barefooted on tile and wood floors every day.

The best way would be to try it on a test spot of the same acrylic paint, and then test it on old shoes of the same material, or a small hard to see area of your shoes. Good luck.

Yes you can, I used it on a pair of white slip on canvas sneakers that have white rubber soles and it worked great!

I use a couple tablespoons of Clorox bleach ( with 6.25% sodium hypochlorite) it effectively kills bacteria without damaging the fabric. The trick is to use just a very small amount in the dark color loads. IT WORKS and I have never had issues. AND remember to ALWAYS leave the front loader washer OPEN when not in use and you will avoid the stink everyone seems to complain about. I have been doing laundry for 40 yrs and I am a professional.....lolI also have been using nothing but Charlie's soap for about 5 yrs now and its the best I have ever found. One more thing.....hydrogen peroxide is a miracle sanitizer also....pour it on stinky socks, shoes, and basically anything that needs the stinky cleaned !!

There's a cheap shoe spray from Penguin brand called "shoe and sneaker deodorize" you can buy at Kroeger or Walmart. Works awesome for shoes. The Venus spray wouldn't likely work on running shoes.

In that case, I wouldn't think this would work. This just provides relief in shoes that feel bad for your feet. Combined with the other treatments, I think these will work. But if you are looking for a magical elixir, these are not it. So I would buy again. These will make your feet feel better but probably won't "cure" your problem. Good luck.

I believe it would, I tried this to stretch a pair of peep-toe pumps. However, I did not like it because it did not stretch evenly; left "bumps" in the leather. Ended up using shoe stretcher spray and a thick pair of socks which worked better.

I dont think so. I use it to clean and message my feet.. buy the pedicure rasp.. that works excellent for that.

Well....to be honest, I'm not sure. I used it on an old pair of running shoes, to get the stink out. It reduced to smell but didn't remove it completely. I was going to try it again but don't have a lot of faith that it will completely remove the odor.
