He works 10 hour days, his feet stink on a regular basis, we have to buy new work shoes frequently. I tell him if he would just take a shower everyday his feet wouldnt stink so bad. He cannot comprehend this. What do I do? I feel like going crazy!!!

Wow this is a tough situation! Maybe you should first try to find out why he does not shower daily? Is he just lazy or is there some underlying reason? Maybe its a psychological problem or something. Maybe he is depressed and doesn't care about how the world smells him. Once you find the real reason, begin finding a solution from there. I was going to suggest blackmail (i.e. no sex), like the others did, but I think it will only worsen the situation and send him the wrong signals in the future. Your husband is not a child anymore, there must be more to this than just refusing to be hygienic.
Regarding his smelly feet, he may have a fungal infection which a doctor should diagnose and see. Having him shower daily will not help a fungal infection.

I have the same problem with my hubby, he is european though, that might be part of the reason....... i just tell him if he stinks so much then he can sleep downstairs on the couch until he showers. The only time he showers on a regular bases is when he has a cold.... drive me nuts.

Tell him that that can cause serious bacteria problems and he can get athletes feet and numerous other bacterial infections, also tell him to have some respect for you, you don't want to have to smell that all night long!!
