I wear flats ALL THE TIME! I love them, and I have like ten pairs. I paid like $85 on a pair, and it's really bumming me out. Because after a few wears like ( maybe a few days) they start to smell kinda bad :[ I can't wear socks, because you can see them, and it looks tacky. Is there anything else I can do? Please help. oh and also, how can I get the nasty smell out of my shoes? Will it ever come out?

How about panty hose (nude) instead of socks?

When you're not whering your shoes, put baking soda in your them. It absorbs the smell, and when you're done, dump it out. If it doesn't work, then no offense, but maybe your feet stink. I had the same problem. Just buy a product called 'Odor Eaters' from Wal-Greens and rub it on your feet and put socks on before you go to sleep. When you wake up, wash your feet. It works.

1. wear the tights that only go around the back of the heel and the tips of ur toes.
2. baby powder will get rid of the smell. you can even go to a shoe store like a big one that speacializes in shoes and get shoe deodourizers

fill up the sink with soapy water , like with dishsoap and scrub them out with a brush , then rinse , put them outside to dry, when u were shoes u must where sock thats y they get stinky , u say socks look tacky with them, try wearing footies, or knee-hi nylon stockings, and use a little powder in your shoes

BELIEVE it or not foot power helps. AND i USED plain soda in the yellow box. I put a few tablespoons od soda in the shoes and i shake it back+ forth. Then i dump the soda out. they smell a lot better. Then there are peds you can get 4 your feet,too.AND odor eater pads as well by Dr sholls

smell is caused by sweat and air meeting.
you sweat it dries and you sweat again.
baking powder or washing them gently with saop might help.
also you can get rid of the smell by leaveing them in the sun for 40 minutes.(if that shoe is expencive i wouldnt do that) but sun destry odor from fabrics.
another try is by leaveing them outside in the cold for the night.
or go to the drug store and buy a powder and use that.
flats have metallic or rubberish soles right?
you can use those just by getting water and soap.
i would try leaving them outside in the cold over night.

Always wash your feet before you wear them. And then get some odor eaters foot powder spray to prevent odors and get rid of existing ones. That should help. I have to do that with some of my boots

u can buy this weird foot de-oudorizer thingimo form most chemists/some supermarkets... its meant to work well... once the shoes are smelly u can neva get the smell completely out, but u can minimise it by using oudour neutralizing sprays.
