Just curious if anyone had some clever secret to not stinking up their dwellings.

She must have a magic wand or something.
Seriously, the wicking stuff works pretty well. I have a rack in my garage to hang the really damp stuff, but otherwise it goes in the first available load of laundry.

i usually hang the runningbra on a hook in the bathroom until it "chills" out. everything else just goes into the clothes hamper where it stays for all of one day -- i have kids, therefore i wash clothes like a maniac.

Edited to say that I add 1/2 tsp of powdered bleach to EVERY load of laundry. It removes odor without damaging the fibres.

Tell you what works for me. During the hot weather months--which is April to Nov. here--I get into the shower in my running clothes. They do not get any more wet than they already are. Then wring them out and hang em to dry to for a few hours before putting them into my running dirty clothes bag.
This might not work too well with any cotton because it won't dry out in a few hours and would start to mildew. Coolmax has been a true quality of life invention for me.

I do need to get more Coolmax stuff, or something similar.

Frabric-wise though, I can't say I find much difference between cotton or coolmax when it comes to stench. Given, the coolmax dries quicker and doesn't weigh down as much, but I run in both (with 100+ race tshirts, I just about have to). I might even go as far as to say coolmax seems to retain a few stink molecules since I don't dare use the bleach or the dryer, which I have no problem with the cotton tees since 'new replacements' are only a weekend race away, they start out much fresher.

In the summer, I'll leave my running stuff out in the garage to dry out but for normal runs, I'll just hang it on a rack until it drys and then throw it in with the other dirty clothes. We're a family of 5 so nothing stays in the hamper for long.
