After a few trips to the mountain my gloves, Burton Gore tex, usually smell pretty bad of sweat and dirty water. After being washed, is there an easier way to dry them without having to turn them inside out? Or preventing them from smelling bad. I aslo wear a glove liner and it doesn't block the smell.

My gloves start to smell pretty nasty also. I have found that if i put dryer sheets in them that will cover up most of the smell.
To dry them, I put them in the dryer on a low heat setting or I stick them next to a heater.

i dry my mittens by sticking an empty toilet paper roll in them and opening the vents on the mittens. do the gloves have vents?

Do you throw it in the dryer with the empty toilet paper roll inside it?

I turn them inside out and let them air dry on the window sill.
Sometimes I hang them in front of the heater vent when it's cold enough for the heater to turn on. |

i just take the time and do it the old classic way... when i am done snowboarding i put em next to a fire and once i get home stray em with some febreez...only febreez though nothi9ng else because they actually kill the germs inside your glove not cover it up!

Wash and dry your hands good before you put on the gloves to kill the germs on your hands so they dont start growing and multiplying inside your gloves. Helps if you can have 2 pairs of gloves and trade off each day to let them dry good between wearings. Moisture increases funk.

If you have oil heat and an older home with a big radiator in it like i do just set your gloves standing up on the radiator and in hte morning they are bone dry.

Usually resting them by the heat vents does the trick for me.

just put em next to the vent if you don't have a radiator or something like that. Hanging them up and letting them dry won't work?
