How do you remove the sweat smell from a shirt?

Answer by  pinkberry (10)

You can try washing your shirt using a natural, homemade mixture of baking soda, vinegar and lemon juice. It is safe to use, extremely affordable and effective in fighting natural odors. Just use it in place of liquid detergent in the washing machine.

I'm not sure the chemical reasons why, but try adding lemon juice to the wash. I was my boyfriends gym clothes with half a cup through the bleach dispenser.

I would soak the shirt in vinegar over night. The wash as usual, but do not put in the dryer. Let it air dry outside. The sun will dry warm and burn the smell out.

You can try to use baking soda, either soak the shirt or add it to your wash. There is also a product called Borax that works well.
