I do not like to wear socks at all. They are uncomfortable and I get too warm. So I wear my streets shoes without socks. How do I effectively get rid of spots of sweat stains on the insoles. Washing with soap and water doesn't help. I tried a baking soda paste. Rubbing alcohol? or hydrogen peroxide?
Socks are worn inside shoes by civilized adults. I can only imagine how your shoes *smell*, let alone what your insoles look like.
Put on some cotton socks and join the rest of Civilization.
Pull those insoles out. Buy a multi pack of Oder eater insoles. Fill shoes with baking soda overnight to remove the stink. Pour out the baking soda. Put in fresh insoles. Voila. Wash your feet every day.
Socks or peds or something for closed shoes. Feet sweat, feet then stink. I use the really inexpensive low peds as well as foot powder in all of my closed shoes. (I think baking soda, cornstarch, or baby powder would work the same way as the more pricey foot powder). Not one of them smell, and neither do my feet at the end of the day. I can actually take off my shoes and put my feet up in someone else's home and not worry about stinky feet.
Bare feet also get blisters. I remember oh so well the blisters on the backs of my feet from going "commando" in closed shoes.
Get a good foot powder and use charcoal or other deodorizing sachets in your shoes. Also, wash your feet daily (like specifically with soap, water and a washrag), then wipe them down with alcohol and run some deoderant over them. That SHOULD take away any stink. Replace your insoles regularly. Go barefoot at home to let your feet breathe.
Make sure you do not have any kind of athlete's foot or toenail fungus that maybe you're not noticing. Those can go undetected sometimes.
I used to have a big foot odor problem when I was young, but haven't for decades.
