My daughter has been wearing wrist supports for the past 4 months. (not Tiger Paws, just the kind from the local pharmacy as recommended by her ortho)
They SMELL!!! She wears them for all of practice (except bars when she wears grips....don't know what those smell like but they stay at the gym so I don't care!
And as a result, her bag smells, even though she leaves it unzipped and takes them out when she gets home from practice so they dry. I got those air freshener things they sell for gym bags and sneakers (little plastic ball things) but they do nothing!
I tried washing a pair but it made the velcro stop working so we are now on the third pair (about a pair a month!) I tried Febreze in the bag but since it's a vinyl material on the inside, it got kind of sticky. I also sprayed the actual wrist guards and this was moderately helpful but then I worried about that stuff touching her skin and giving her a rash so decided against this!
Any suggestions?! A super powered air freshener?!
Thanks!
