Sweeten Up Smelly Feet
My husband has a problem. His feet smell like they…well like they are rotting. Now, I know this isn’t happening but boy
o’ boy the odor sure makes me take a step back. He has always had this issue because his feet sweat so much. Add that together with the fact that he has to wear his work boots almost 18 hours a day when he is working and… well, you get the picture or I should say the smell.
We have tried a multitude of remedies for this but to no avail, other than to go barefoot. Since that is not possible, I know that there must be another solution. Recently, I came across some bamboo socks and I thought I would give them a try. After all, bamboo acts like a charcoal filter in clothing and footwear so what have I got to lose.
As it turns out, what I have to lose is exactly what I wanted to lose in the first place… the odour. No more smelly feet in our house. Everyone is wearing bamboo socks from now on; either that or bare feet. Boy, talk about eco-friendly footwear, the air around here is much fresher now.
