Smoky bars, restaurants and casinos can wreak havoc on our clothes. It’s true that smoking laws have reduced the number of businesses that may allow smoking, but sometimes you still can’t get away from it. Take Las Vegas as an example. At my former airline, the flight crews stayed at a hotel with a casino right in the lobby. By they time I arrived to my room my uniform was coated with cigarette smoke. The next day, even after airing out my clothes in the bathroom, my clothes still smelled of smoke and putting on fresh uniform only meant that the smoky clothes contaminated the rest of the items in my suitcase.
Of course, odors don’t start and stop with cigarette smoke. Campfires and workout clothes also have a thick stench that will stay with clothing and shoes. That’s where Flat-D Universal Deodorizer Bag comes in. This brilliant product uses activated charcoal cloth to remove odors from clothes or shoes. Since I’ve returned to flying I luckily haven’t had to face any smoky clothes, but I have been traveling with my gym clothes and shoes. And let’s face it, carrying around sweaty workout clothes for four days can be rather unpleasant. When I was offered the chance to review this Flat-D product, I was intrigued.
This is how the product works:
- Remove Flat-D Universal Deodorizer Bag from the Ziplock protective plastic bag.
- Open the bag and place items you wish to deodorize in a single layer.
- Close the bag and allow time for the bag to absorb the odors and deodorizer the items (I’ve been doing it overnight).
- Remover the items and put the bag back in the plastic bag.
Abracadabra! The stench from your clothes or shoes vanish. It really works. Honestly, my running shoes haven’t smelled this fresh since they were new. Now that I’m traveling four to six days a week again this bag is always with me. I have the Utility Satchel, but there are other choices depending upon your needs including a Laundry Bag and a Clothing Carrier for suits or other clothes on a hanger. There’s even options for hunters.
If you’ve been in need of something to remove stenches from your clothing, I suggest you give Flat-D Universal Deodorizer Bag a try.
















this can be very useful and convenient if it does really work
Thanks for the tip.
