NO MORE SMELLING SHOES WITH THE FOLLOWING HINTS AND TIPS

Have you ever smelt your shoes or feet at the end of a day and found yourself horrified at the odor?

There are plenty of things that can cause this. Perhaps you have a fungal infection or maybe your shoes are worn out or don't allow for enough air passage.

Thankfully, there are lots of things you can do to make sure your shoes don't stink anymore. Let's review some of the better hints and tips.

First, you must remove the smell that is already there by sprinkling some baking soda into your shoes each night.

Also, check your insoles and make sure they are the type that don't collect odors or make your feet sweat. Cedar insoles are classed as the best. Do also make sure that your insoles are unable to move about, as this could make your feet sweat by rubbing them.

If you can, although this is costly, replace the lining of your shoes with silver. Silver is a fantastic anti-microbial agent.

If your shoes are already stinky, freeze them. Washing your shoes will also be beneficial, but only if they are washable. Baby powder on your feet is also very beneficial. This will prevent your feet from sweating and it also reduces the chances of fungal and bacterial infections.

Naturally, excellent personal hygiene is also very important and you should wash your feet every day. What is perhaps even more important is that you also dry them properly.

You should also always wear socks, particularly in closed shoes. You will otherwise start to rub your skin and make your feet smell. You can always choose to wear no show socks if you don't like the look of socks.

Also, when you go out to buy new shoes (or socks), make sure they are made of a high quality material.

Lastly, throw your shoes away if they are totally worn. It will become increasingly difficult to get rid of the smell and more and more bacteria will take up residence in there.

Clearly, smelly shoes should be a thing of the past.

The above hints and tips should help every time, unless you don't have healthy feet. Get checked out by your medical professional and if you do have a fungal or bacterial infection, they will be able to prescribe you something for that.

You may think that these tips are simple common sense, but many people forget to actually do this.
