(I'm pretty sure kissing speed bags or other non-human apparatus is illegal in Texas, so don't do it in public )

Three weeks later and the smell has subsided by at least 70% ? Optimistic

Thanks for the input fellas
I'll give it a few weeks and see if the smell subsides and I'll also try some sunshine. If that doesn't work, Dad I think I'll take it in to a leather or tack shop as you suggest.
Rusty, YMCA smell lol Hopefully not the men's change room smell.

Just a thought
Sorry I can’t solve your problem but I may have a possible resource.
Try a Tack shop, those saddles get a lot of sweat and other odors from both side for years and you’re dealing with people who know leather.

Musky, Smelly Speed Bag
The 4200 I found on ebay last week arrived and although it's in almost immaculate condition it smells like an old musky attic. Can't ascertain whether or not it's a moisture thing.. but I can smell it from three ft away. I tried the baking soda in the bag for 24 hours but that didn't help at all. Any ideas? A net search also suggested vinegar.
I'm thinking that I should deflate and attack this from the inside out. It has the original bladder and the bag is a real mover, but the smell is a little, distracting
I don't want to completely remove the bladder as I will have to damage it in order to remove it.
any thoughts are appreciatedTags: None
