# How to Get the Smell Out of Shoes With Sheepskin Lining
For the fashion-forward individual who also loves to be comfortable, sheepskin-lined shoes are a must-have. Shoes or boots made from sheepskin are durable, warm and moisture wicking for optimal wearability and comfort no matter the season. Over time, perspiration and bacteria from your feet can collect inside your sheepskin shoes. If left untended, this can result in a pungent odor. After a gentle hand washing and a sprinkle of baking soda, your pair will smell as good as new.
