Review on ๐Ÿงผ Optimized Nikwax BaseWash by Kevin Cota

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Helps my son's smelly soccer jerseys

Our family wears a lot of athletic, moisture-wicking clothing. I started noticing smells; especially with my son's t-shirts which stuck to clothes even after washing. I read some positive reviews about Nikwax Base Wash and decided to give it a try. I love it and plan to continue using it for our sportswear. I think it refreshes and restores moisture wicking properties. By the way, I also hang all these clothes out to dry. So the football jerseys of the son. After several washes, the smell is less unpleasant. Old t-shirts still have a strong smell; I'm not sure if it will ever come out or not. I will update the review if this is the case. The downside of the product is the cost. UPDATED 9-2014 I've been using this product for two years and am a big fan. As for a couple of lingering smells in old clothes (pre-Nik Wax), I've found that soaking in white vinegar followed by washing and rinsing the Clothing freed from all odors. To attempt!

Pros
  • Speeds up drying and improves moisture absorption and breathability in athletic or workout clothes
Cons
  • Price
