I wash my sports bras in hot water BUT as soon as I begin to sweat they really stink..like mildew?

If they have a mildew smell, that is because there is live mold in them. The only way to get rid of the smell is kill the mold. Killing the mold? Easy! Just let them sit in a sink full of warm water and one cup of white vinegar for about an hour. Then wash as normal. That should solve the problem.I wash my sports bras in hot water BUT as soon as I begin to sweat they really stink..like mildew?
Are you washing them in a front loading washing machine? If you are using a front loading washing machine, that smell probably is mildew. Whenever you keep the door closed on a front loading washing machine, the moisture in the tub cannot dry out and will develop mildew. You have to keep the door slightly ajar on a front loading washing machine. You also have to ';clean'; the tub. The cheapest way to do that is to use some unsweetened lemon-flavored drink mix in a hot water wash cycle. There is a product called ';Smelly Washer Cleaner'; (developed by an appliance repairman) that is sold on the internet for this purpose.I wash my sports bras in hot water BUT as soon as I begin to sweat they really stink..like mildew?
Root cause is toxins inside your body. Drink plenty (at least 5 to 6 liters ) of water to flush out all the impurities from your system every day. That way your sweat does not smell.


The foods that we eat ( man made) produce lots of toxins into our system. That is one reason our mouths stink. The smell does not come out of the mouth. ( brushing does not help for too long ). As a matter of fact, the smell comes out of our stomach. If you drink plenty of water, your mouth does not smell either.
Put white vinegar in with the detergent. I put it in the bleach tray.


What you are smelling is the accumulation of soap that does not fully rinse out. Use warm water and cold rinse not hot.
Add one cup of baking soda to warm wash water. Let soak for one Hr. wash %26amp; rense and ,if possible, hang to dry in direct sun light. They will smell fresh like new.
try using amonia on them poor about a cup over them in washer an wash in hot w/your reg detergent if there all white you could bleach them but dont use amonia an bleach together
How do you dry them? If at one time you let them sit wet for a prolonged amount of time then they will develop a mildewy smell.
I would throw those bras out and get new ones.
