full disclosure first, I've known Steve for probably fifteen years ago when we used to play paintball with and against each other. I haven't played for a few years but the sweat odours from our gear and then in recent years in my active hockey and gym participation, mean that I am well familiar with the problem. So, nothing ventured/nothing gained and willing to help a mate I decided to give it a go. Well, it certainly does work!! It does what it says it will do. Very happy with it and certainly happy to recommend it to others!
The condition or should I say smell of goalie gear is legend and always a constant battle to fight the odours from sweat. Using gear guard is helping to reduce such odours ongoing and prolong the life expectancy of body armour
Amazing product, very effective from wash 1! Will definitely be ordering more
It actually works and does what it says it will do. Saved me from throwing out a perfectly good rashie.
Ordered gear guard and had it delivered within 2 days, used it for my jiu jitsu gear and instantly noticed an improvement in the post wash odour have since incorporated it to my standard washing for work gear etc. now the only thing that stinks is my Jiu Jitsu skills! Highly recommend this product!
Washed our boxing gear with it the other day. Worked wonders!! So happy that I am now using it for all our sports clothes, which we have multiple loads of every week.
I was tipped this product from BJJ friend, as we talked about my funky training gear. I've tried it now a few times washing everything from shirts/singlets, shorts, hats, compression & even dirty trail shoes. It takes a few washes, and I highly recommend for my fellow "runners" to use in their laundry.
Excellent stuff, seems to do the trick
I noticed the difference immediately on both my rash guard and Gi. This product does an excellent job of suppressing any odor, even the most gruesome, sweat enduing rolls on a summer afternoon. I had even noticed the lack of smell while wearing my rash guard to the gym on cardio days once i began using this product. Highly recommend!
Definitely would recommend the product to anyone that has training or work gear. Hard to come across products that works and Garames products did just that. I tested it it alone on BJJ GI's and rashgaurds, there was no smell after training in a 35°C Aussie day and throughout an Aussie summer.
This gear guard is the ultimate weapon against mat funk! Used it numerous types on my gear and removes the odor. I've even start using it on my football gear as well and have been amazed by it. Only downside is it doesn't improve my skills 😔 Highly recommend
Phosphodiesterase enzyme
The powerhouse of Gear Guard! This active enzyme breaks down sweat residue, organic gunk, and extracellular DNA that bind odour residues to fabric like glue.
Water
Water helps distribute the enzyme evenly across your gear, ensuring every fibre gets cleaned thoroughly.
Preservatives (MCI & MI)
To ensure Gear Guard stays fresh and effective, even in warm and humid environments, we use small amounts of preservatives - Methylchloroisothiazolinone (MCI) and Methylisothiazolinone (MI). While these are commonly used in many household products, we know that some people with sensitive skin may experience Allergic Contact Dermatitis (ACD). If you’ve had sensitivities before, we recommend trying a single bottle first. We’re happy to offer a full refund if it’s not right for you.

Why do things you sweat in hold onto that stubborn sweat smell, even after washing?
It has a lot to do with the material of clothing, not bacteria and not your hygiene. As bacteria break down sweat, they leave behind compounds that cling to fabrics. This is especially true for synthetic fibres like polyester and nylons, like are used in most of the gear and apparel you sweat in.
Bacteria themselves do not cause those recurring odours. This is why sanitisers aren't effective at removing embedded 'permastink'.
Traditional detergents clean surface dirt, and sanitisers neutralise bacteria but miss the residues that hang on to the fibres themselves. These left-behinds are what cause smells to keep coming back. When you're wearing those clothes again, the oily sweat residues and odorous compounds get warmed up by your body heat and mix with new sweat and start to evaporate. From here, they take on a new, especially foul kind of aroma, almost like an ammonia smell. Regular detergents and sanitisers can't help from here!
So, how does Gear Guard make a difference?
Gear Guard's enzymes target the extracellular DNA (eDNA) in those organic left-overs, removing the 'glue' that holds odours in fabric fibres. This then lets those compounds and residues be washed away. It usually takes two washes for the Gear Guard magic to really take hold.

Shipping to other international destinations
