You hit the court ready to dominate—diving for digs, blocking at the net, hustling for every point. By the end of the match, you’re exhausted, sweaty, and riding that post-game high.
Then you take off your knee pads.
Instant regret.
The stench is so bad you’re wondering if knee pads have an expiration date. Your shoes aren’t much better, and your gym bag? Let’s just say opening it in a confined space is a serious risk.
But before you consider setting your gear on fire, let’s talk about a real solution.
🏐 The Playbook for Beating Volleyball Gear Funk
🔥 The Immediate Fix: Attack the Stink ASAP
The second you’re off the court, don’t just toss your knee pads and shoes into your gym bag and hope for the best. Spray them down with RANK Spray—inside, outside, every inch that’s been soaking up sweat.
✔ Knee pads – The #1 stink culprit? Spray directly onto the padding.
✔ Shoes – Get inside where the moisture and bacteria love to hide.
✔ Jerseys – A quick spritz keeps them fresh between washes.
🌬 The Prevention Plan: Air It Out
Ever smelled something so bad it made you question your life choices? That’s what happens when you trap sweaty gear in a sealed gym bag. Instead, air everything out in a well-ventilated area.
Let RANK Spray work while your gear dries—it doesn’t mask odors, it neutralizes them.
🎒 The Bag Check: Your Secret Stink Zone
Your gym bag is ground zero for odor buildup. It doesn’t just store the stink—it multiplies it.
Spray the inside with RANK Spray to stop your bag from turning into a walking cloud of funk. Because no one wants to be the teammate known for that smell.
