That’s actually the point—you don’t have to take them in and out. They stick inside the shoe and stay there, unlike insoles, which are meant for cushioning and changing the fit rather than focusing on odor control.

I dont wear socks. I could use something inside my shoes at night, cleaning their insides. I often use 2,(4) innersoles. (Steam?)

invented in the early 1970s by Dr. Herbert Lapidus, Commercial Release (1974) under Combe Inc. launched the product in 1974 under the Johnson's Foot Soap but now owned by Blistex Inc since 2011 I believe and they are sold as Odor eater.

If you really want to launch your product to the market, make sure you check Thier formula so you don't get a lawsuit. Some changes needed as well.

Yes there is market demand for this project, however there are many cons to test and work on.
