What can you do about sweaty feet?

Nobody likes sweaty feet. In fact, they can be very annoying, especially if they release unpleasant odors. With these tips you can tackle your sweaty feet.

Wash feet
Wash your feet regularly and wear them properly afterwards. The smell of sweaty feet is caused by bacteria. It is therefore a good idea to use an anti-bacterial product.

Choose your shoes carefully
Make sure your feet can breathe. Opt for airy shoes. Ballerinas are less suitable for preventing sweaty feet. When wearing them, opt for a pair of genuine leather.

Insoles
You can use insoles in closed shoes. Buy insoles made of natural material. Also handy, if the insoles smell bad, you can replace them.

Against wet feet
There are special deodorants and products for your feet. A little talcum powder can also do wonders in keeping your feet drier.

Extreme sweaty feet
If you suffer from sweaty feet a lot, you can go to the doctor.

Bring clean socks
Socks that are damp from sweat can chafe. To prevent that, you can put on clean socks halfway through the day.

Swap shoes
Don't wear the same shoes two days in a row. After wearing your shoes, give your shoes a day of rest to dry well.
