How do I get the odour and sweat out of my work boots?

I work many hours in a very active job so my work boots get quite sweaty and smell quite a bit, I have tried loads of things to get the odour out of them but nothing seems to work.

I did a job before I was walking up and down the deck all day and got the same problem, only thing to do is get a second pair, or if yours have turned two new pairs and alternate them daily

@SW-User Yeah I would get a new pair but the ones I prefer are hard to find and quite expensive, and they get smelly really quick.

I hear you, I started out with £90 dickie's and by the second month I was buying 2 £20 pairs of plain boots and changing them every 4-6 weeks

Its an investment if your feet be sitting in bacteria all day they'll suffer
