I don't know about cracks, but for dry feet in general, try Nexcare foot cream. It's *awesome*, no lie. It works fast, makes the skin soft and smooth, soaks in quickly, and it's totally non-greasy. Plus it smells good. I think Nexcare also makes a cracked skin ointment or something like that and if the cream is good, I bet the cracked skin stuff is good, too.
But if the skin doesn't respond well to regular creams, try a super-rich medicated cream--you might have a touch of athlete's foot (it's everywhere--don't fret over it, just put on some cream and it'll clear up.) Either way, put on a good cream, put on some socks, and your skin will get softer and smoother. Seriously, Nexcare is the best! They also make great bandages. This is not a paid endorsement--I just recommend what I like the best.

Use a file in the shower, the kind that looks like a paddle which you can get at any drugstore. Use it in the shower while your feet are wet. I have to do that. After you get out, use a good moistureizer. Use the moistureizer before bed too. Do the file regiment until you start to see some improvement.

Can you get Aveeno in the US? If not plan a trip to Canada. The stuff is a great moisturizer. If you are Canadian then any drug store will carry it. About a week later you'll have great looking heels, elbows, legs, arms, etc....

I saw this cream in the Avon book the other day, you rub it on and it peels off and takes all of the dry skin with it. It looks good, I cant remember how much it was though.

Try using a dry skin lotion on them at night, and wear socks to bed. During the day soak them in sea salt and water, and use a buffing pad to get the dead skin off.

bacteria is the cause of this and i'm sure it is because you are wearing shoes (especially when worn with socks)...the remedy may be as simple as going barefoot to keep your feet clear of the harmful bacteria that causes feet to become dry and cracked...
washing your feet after taking off your shoes will also help....
