Clean air act: smart ways to keep your trainers fresh

Running, as the ever-increasing legions of pavement-pounders will tell you, is good for heart and mind. But it may leave your trainers a little soggy and, if not assiduously aired, none too fragrant. Korea’s 250 Design has come up with a pleasingly practical solution: a natural, non-electric shoe dehumidifier that will suck your trainers dry and odourless with minimum fuss.
The device comes in a range of colours and is neat and discreet enough to pack in a sports bag.
