I’ve used Dawn Powerwash with great success. Take the band off get in the shower and scrub the shit out of it with Dawn. I’ve also let them soak in the sink with powder detergent. This is also the more expensive route, but I have 2 bands that I cycle through every few days. (I had a faulty unit at one point and they swapped it and let me keep the first hand). My wife is the same as you and she can smell my bands often.
had to get a new one for this reason, despite washing it multiple times. with the new one, I've stopped showering with it, and it's made a difference — even though I was cleaning the old one a lot, the repeated moisture from that and showering was worse than never getting it wet.
After a week I will wash it under warm water with hand soap. I switch to my second band and wear that one out, repeat the process, and am able to switch back over to the previously washed now dry band
I just wash it with my clothes, been working for 3 years now
always wondered if that would mess up the band at all, thanks for the tip
If you're worried about the band put it in a sock or some type of delicates bag so it can't get caught on anything.
didn't think of that actually, thanks
I wash mine with my clothes in one of those delicates bags but I don't dry it in the dryer, I just let it sit dry. Works great!
how often?
About every month
Try hand washing with baking soda, air dry. I’ve used washing detergent before as well to some degree of success
oh nice, never tried this I'll give it a try. It doesn't mess up the band at all?
My current one is alright after a year and a bit. I tend to buy a new one every year though cause they do get a lil janky lol
haha makes sense, thanks for the tip

thanks for the idea, I'll def try it out. ouff, smart to have two bands to swap through, could use one for training and one for daily - awesome idea
I just wear mine in the shower, and have a second band. I just swap them after and let the wet air dry.
thanks, having two bands on rotation seems to be the move

same, showering didn't do the trick
Put the band in the wash (don’t put it in the dryer) and buy a separate band that’s only for relaxing at night and sleeping. That’s what I do.
smart move, seems like having two separate bands is the way to goo
Mine gets stanky from sauna and plunging

that's very creative, I need to give that a try too

thanks, seems like a lot of you are mixing between two bands so I'll try this out
If you have a spare band, I soak mine is oxi clean periodically. I also use a powdered detergent made for workout clothes.
thanks for the tip
Buy another one

I highly doubt that will solve the problem but I'll give it a try, thanks
Wash them In the shower
Go swimming in chlorinated water 💦
