Including, shall we say, someone very close to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-remove-jacket-underarm-odor#post-1768693 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 03:05:16 +0000 Anonymous 1768693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting. &nbsp;I am assuming that the wearer is under some pressure when wearing the jacket. &nbsp;Given the circumstances, I understand more accurately the problem. &nbsp;Perhaps dress shields would be the best solution? &nbsp;Best wishes. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-remove-jacket-underarm-odor#post-1768685 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 01:47:13 +0000 Column 1768685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you everyone. I know this is hardly a sexy topic (quite the opposite), but I appreciate people taking time and interest. </p> <p>The issue isn't mine; I rarely wear jackets and those I have are washable (like denim). I am (now-not-so-stealthily) relying on the forum's knowledge for someone close to me who seems to have this problem after wearing the jacket for a day at a very formal office only once or twice. Perhaps twice constitutes cleaning, but certainly once would not--would it? Won't that wear out the garment quickly, especially if coordinating separates aren't worn as frequently? I googled the issue and was surprised at the number of threads out there by men and women alike. This appears to be a fairly common problem, which is how I learned of the odor removing products that use ions, enzymes, etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-remove-jacket-underarm-odor#post-1768680 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 01:35:14 +0000 Anonymous 1768680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to agree with <b></b>JAileen<b></b>.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-remove-jacket-underarm-odor#post-1768677 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 01:29:17 +0000 Echo 1768677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to agree with JAileen, and then I would follow lisap's advice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-remove-jacket-underarm-odor#post-1768639 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 23:28:28 +0000 JAileen 1768639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If your jacket smells and you think it is "between cleanings", what would make you have it cleaned? To me, a jacket smelling like sweat should be cleaned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-remove-jacket-underarm-odor#post-1768636 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 23:24:38 +0000 Sheryl 1768636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Depending on what the suit jackets are made of (should work fine wool and cotton, could cause a water stain with silk) you can spot clean and rinse &nbsp;using gentle shampoo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-remove-jacket-underarm-odor#post-1768633 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 23:16:55 +0000 gradfashionista 1768633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Spray it with a mixture made of 1/2 water and 1/2 unflavored vodka. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-remove-jacket-underarm-odor#post-1768622 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 22:57:09 +0000 Angie 1768622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to suggest what Lisa did.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-remove-jacket-underarm-odor#post-1768605 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 21:51:12 +0000 Anonymous 1768605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, there are such things as ( under arm ) dress shields.

I would love reviews of Odornix, OdorXit, or Dr. Mist (or similar products). With sleeveless shirts, the product will come in direct contact with skin. Already practice or have tried:</p> <p>-good hygiene and barrier protection as prevention<br /> -airing out garments<br /> -baking soda (doesn't really work and messy!)<br /> -Dryel sheets directly applied to affected areas and generally used as directed in dryer (doesn't work)</p> <p>Any guidance you can offer would be greatly appreciated! </p>
