the collar (the part that goes over the mouth) of my snowboard jacket smells really bad from being wet all the time, and possibily from my spit.
i tried febreeze, that just made it smell like febreeze + the wet smell.
I dont want to use detergent on the whole jacket cuz i remember you are not suppose to because it would cut ruin the waterproofing.
So i used detergent on just the collar then rinsed it, but the weird smell still lingers.
is there any natural stuff i can use? like lemon mixed with water or something……….
also, if anyone know how to get rid of the smell of wet snowboard boot liners, please let me know.
thanks!
thanks for the answers…………I know about Nikwax and washing and all that, but my question is just about the COLLAR part.
I have tried washing the whole jacket but the collar still kinda smells.
to Nephroid:
its really wet here in the northwest, so we need the waterproofing
