How to make homemade charcoal shoe deodorizers

DIY Activated Charcoal Shoe Deodorizer

In my ongoing saga to find the best shoe odor eliminators, this week I tried making my own homemade activated charcoal shoe deodorizers.  Charcoal has long been used as an absorber of nastiness from being used in medicine to treat various types of poisoning (more on that here in a dense medical research paper), filtering filtering water and alcohol, as well as dozens of other uses.  I’d seen some fancy pants charcoal shoe deodorizers for sale on Amazon from Moso Natural which look great.  In the end I decided to make my own charcoal shoe deodorizers with some handy supplies I had laying around. These are a great shoe deodorizer option if you are looking for a diy shoe deodorizer without baking soda.
