How can I prevent sweaty, smelly feet?

 

A: Your sweaty, stinky feet are embarrassing and annoying...so how do you fix them? Your feet have over 3,000 sweat glands so when you shove them into tight, dark, contaminated shoes it only gets worse.  In addition, your dark, cramped shoes breed bacteria which will then cause that sticky odor. Also, some people, unfortunately, inherited a condition known ashyperhidrosis- excessive sweating.

We have many products in our office which will help to, not "mask" the odor, but prevent, treat, and eliminate the odor and sweat. Soap, deoderants, lotions, and foot sprays to kill the bacteria.
