Deodorizing packed winter clothes

I just took out my leather jacket from the winter closet and it smells of the shoes in my shoerack. Whats the best way to remove that summer long closet smell?

we have the same problem with our clothes that come out of storage, its even worse b/c we live right next to the sea and our area is very humid and that exacerbates the musty smell

hmmm....to store u can put phenyl balls...and another thing u can do is...take some nice smelling soap...like LUX....cut it into chunks like about 1"x1"x1", wrap those chunks in tissue paper [just one layer] and put the chunks in the middle of ur clothes

once u take a piece of clothing out, jus put it in some sunlight so the germs r killed and the thing freshens up...ofcourse dont put sun sensitive clothes in harsh sun tho...

and then just spray it with some nice perfume and put it under the fan for a couple hours...

dats what i do atleast and usually it works

Febreze

Add potpourri when u put ur clothes away. Febreeze sounds good too. Just get ur stuff drycleaned!

I would rather throw away my clothes than put that creepy stuff in 'em. The smell is so ever-lasting.

Chee you'll probably have to get it washed/cleaned - joh bhi.Next time, get the coat plastic covers that zip up.Before you put your jacket away, add some frebreze sheets to it.
