Wool socks might be a good solution - maybe short ones that don't reach above the ankle bone in a neutral color. I've found foot talc powder to be great at neutralizing bacteria, so a dusting of talc + a thin wool sock could be an economical and effective solution. Worth a try anyway. I used

Wool socks might help a lot. Wool does not support bacterial growth (the scent source) and basically, doesn't smell. On Mon, May 12, 2014 at 3:07 PM, Peter Morgano wrote: > I have no shame, I am a sweaty sweaty man. When I wrestled it was 4 t > shirts in 4 hours of practice. I love riding in my

Maybe try getting 2 pairs of sandals and rotating them every day so they have a chance to dry. Maybe try Chaco sandals. I had odor issues with Keen Sandals but my Chacos have been pretty good. Dan Abelson On May 12, 2014 3:07 PM, "Peter Morgano" wrote: > I have no shame, I am a sweaty sweaty ma

Unless there are some seriously high-tech developments in footbed design, the sweat at the bottom of the foot/under the toes has nowhere to go. Without the sock to absorb the foot sweat, the funk just builds up on sandals. They'd need a removable/washable footbed to stay unfunky, or you'd have to

I have no shame, I am a sweaty sweaty man. When I wrestled it was 4 t shirts in 4 hours of practice. I love riding in my tevas but my wife has commanded they now live outside due to the smell they are generating from my sweaty feet. Anyone know of a sandal either leather or synthetic that can help?
