You’re no stranger to sweat, grit, and hard hits on the field. But after a few weeks of practice, scrimmages, and game days, you start to notice something even tougher to handle—the smell coming from your pads.
By mid-season, your football gear isn’t just protecting you—it’s harboring a locker room’s worth of sweat, bacteria, and mystery odors that refuse to quit.
The bad news? Football pads are one of the hardest pieces of gear to clean.
The good news? You don’t need to suffer through the stink.
The Fix: How to Keep Football Pads Fresh All Season
🏈 Step 1: Spray It Down After Every Game
Before you even think about stuffing your pads back in your bag, hit them with RANK Spray. Focus on areas like shoulder pads and chest protectors, where sweat builds up the most.
🌬 Step 2: Let Them Breathe
Your pads need airflow, not a dark, sweaty bag. Lay them out in a well-ventilated space so they can dry completely before you pack them away.
🔄 Step 3: Make It Routine
A quick spritz after every practice or game keeps odors from building up over time. Consistency is the key to making sure your pads smell as fresh as your game-day confidence.
