well????
One of the main causes of smelly feet, which must imply sweaty feet, is wearing the wrong foot coverings or footwear. Shoes with plastic or synthetic fabric linings don't allow sweat evaporation or absorption, so the foot stays wet. Synthetic coverings, like socks, have the same effect. Wear only 60-70 per cent wool with 30-40 per cent man-made fibre socks. Make sure they have a close weave, and not too tight. If necessary you can wear two pairs to increase absorption.
