Adidas Climalite

[Wizard.sixpack]

I love the feel of the Adidas Climalite but damn if it doesn't stink after a long day even with putting on a good dose of deodorant in the morning. I really don't sweat a whole lot, I can only imagine what I would smell like if I did over sweat. Anyone else having this issue?

Haven't had this problem, or at least it doesn't stink any more than any other shirt after a whole day. And yes, I've worn it outside for a whole day.

Were you drinking from a stadium cup? ***

 

[patdog]

Haven't really noticed an issue with it. Don't wear all day, but have played a lot of 2+ hr tennis matches where I sweated my *** off in it. And I agree, it feels great.

 

[Wizard.sixpack]

yes does that make a difference? I spilled a drink on it from the cup? That could be it.***

 

[Dawgbite]

If you have been drinking from the "***" cups then it is the smell leaching from your body into the fabric of your shirt, kinda like garlic!

Sounds like you need to change deodorant.*

 

[Augustus McCrae]

Replace deodorant with Dales. Problem solved.

Ha! Now that's funny

Are you sure it's getting clean to begin with? I have to wash mine on hot and usually I go ahead and run it on heavy cycle. I'm sure that's probably not good for it but that's the only way I can get it to not stink. If I wash it with warm or cold water, I either can't wear it to begin with or it starts to stink before the day is over.

Every item of tech fabric I own smells like *** after a wearing or two. The problem is indemic to tech fabric.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

better have friends that like the smell of ***.

 

[Dawgbite]

Doesn't by any chance smell like Kate Uptons *** because that would be an entirely different story.

Deodorant alone doesn't do the trick. You also have to shower daily ... with soap. **

Smells like every other one to me, and I swear a lot. I wish this was a thread on what deodorant doesn't make you sweat *

Add some 20 mule team borax to the wash. That's what my wife started doing and worked like a charm. No more smell after the wash. I think that fabric just holds the funk better/worse than cotton

Does swearing make you sweat ... or stink? **

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

It makes me type too ******* fast is what it does

This is the problem. I've read up on it before. The smell is coming from bacteria still in the shirt from the last time you wore it - and today's sweat is just activating the stench in the shirt. You gotta wash them a lot better than cotton shirts.

 

[RocketDawg]

Understood. Every time I type in "Dak" spell correction changes it to "Dan". It takes on a totally different meaning if I don't notice.

 

[Hail State]

Yes. Regardless of how much deodorant you use they will smell after only a couple of hours. I guess the fabric just holds stink. I don't think they particularly feel good either. The fabric feels sticky like Velcro. I only wear them because they look good.
