1. do u have a foot fungus
2. You can buy things to put in shoes at shoe stores to make them smell better. When i was little my mom would throw them in the washer then the dryer..... or put them in the dishwasher...... or put some dryer sheets in them
3. i put baby powder in my husbands work boots every nite and they stay fresh
4. Grans Remedy, its a powder treatment for your shoes. Yuo can find it in most pharmacies. You sprinkle a little in each shoe, each day for about a month. I swear by it. It also help if you start wearing clean cotton socks, as the nylon or rayon/polyester that are in cheap socks tend to make your feet sweat and thats what creates the smell. It would also help if you bought decent shoes made out of leather and not cheap materials from China
5. Do you wear these shoes every day? If so, they need to dry out. Stuff them with newspaper overnight, or let sit for a couple of days and wear a different pair of shoes.
