How can I get Stinky feet to stop stinking?

Question

I always wear close toe shoes cas of work how can I get them to stop smelling?

Answer 1

Wear shoes that breathe as much as possible. Always wear clean socks, preferably cotton and not synthetics. If you can, get two pairs of shoes and wear them on alternate days, letting the other pair dry out well.
It's mostly the bacteria breaking down the sweat that cause the smell, rather than the sweat itself, so use an anti-bacterial spray or cream too.
Take off your shoes after work and let your feet breathe, barefoot or in sandals.

Answer 2

first, wash them and let them air dry so they aren't wet before you put your socks on. This will help prevent athelete's foot. I would recommend foot powder made especially for controlling odor. And check to see if it isn't time to throw out your shoes. If you happen to wear tennis shoes, wash them in the washing machine on a gentle cycle with a little detergent. Let them air dry. That should help with any smell.

Answer 3

Try wearing non-synthetic shoes. Use odor eaters. Make sure your feet are really dry before putting on your shoes and cotton socks.
