How can I get my gloves to smell less disgusting? I'm pretty sure my hands don't smell THAT bad, yet these gloves are awful. I washed them yesterday and they still smell. I really don't want to have to throw them away as they weren't cheap and other than the smell they're great (sealskinz) but if I can't get the smell to go away then I don't have much choice.
An update on my gloves, for anyone remotely interested in my “scientific” experiments. After washing and drying my gloves, I put them in the freezer. I then forgot about them, thought I’d lost them and bought some new ones. In the meantime, a friend came to stay and yesterday found the gloves and thinks I have dementia or something. The gloves have been thawed and I can report SUCCESS! After 2 weeks in the freezer, they no longer smell - AND I have new gloves! Win all round.

Just in time for spring…
