Smelly Feet

With over 2 million sweat glands on the feet, the average person sweats up to ¼ cup a day in their shoe. This sweat changes the pH level of the skin and creates an environment for bugs to grow. It is this bacteria that gives off an unpleasant odour. The build up of perspiration on the foot can lead to a build up of moisture on the feet or in the shoes and this can lead to a build up of bacteria which can cause odour issues.

Shoes are designed to keep moisture out and so they quite often also keep moisture in which exaggerates the issue. Also some material in the shoes can hold the moisture and bacteria which also exaggerates the problem Products such as Cool Foot Spray and Roll On for Feet can help solve this problem.
