My 7 yr old has the most stinky feet on EARTH! What can I do to help this stinch disappear??? I even bought him GEOX-brand shoes (the ones that are supposed to let your feet breathe and not smell...) and even those are smelling now.
HELP!!!!!!!

A lady at the gym told me to put deodorant on the bottom of my feet. I haven't tried it yet.

Definitely try rotating shoes especially if the shoes are all leather or they are like basketball sneakers. Those seem to hold the stink the worst. Sticking sheets of bounce inside them at night or using Febreeze might help.

Consider trying Crocs brand shoes. They're anti microbial--and your feet don't sweat in them. (I have a pair, fugly, but really comfy for the house) I can wear them with socks and without.
They have all types at the Crocs website. Even rain boots.

I read an article a long time ago that said if it's a particular pair of shoes, there's no bringing them back and they (the shoes, not your kid's feet) should be disposed of.

soak the feet in tea(lukewarm) for 20 minutes. i've heard this works because of the tannin in the tea.
and try drying out the shoes by putting them in the sun for a day. check for bugs befor you put them on.

OK...pay attention here cuz I do not let my MMA fight secrets out too often..
Google a product called "No Bo".
The stuff fights stink in shoes, boxing gloves and all kinds of stinky equipment....and it works very well.
I use it on all my fight gear.

The tea doubles as a great, soothing before bed drink too! It's like liquid limberger w/o all the fat and cholesterol of real cheese! Yum!
