My flip flops reek... what can i do?

alright, so i own a pair of Reef Sultans... they are just standard leather flip flops that i paid a good 40 bucks for. The problem is that feet sweat, the sweat gets in the sandals, and they stink. How do you guys keep your feet from smelling like straight a$$ when you%26#039;re wearing flip flops?

Stop wearing them everyday and give them a break. Spray some odor killer or some foot powder on and wrap them in newspaper for a day. You will probably have to repeat on numerous occasions.
Reply:You%26#039;re going to have to clean those suckers if you use them a lot. I%26#039;d clean them, thoroughly dry them, then treat them with a water resistant spray for shoes. You can find that anywhere. This will prevent the sweat from seeping in the shoe and smelling horrible. First step would be to get rid of the smell before doing that! Also, it%26#039;s leather, so you can%26#039;t just toss em in the washing machine, I think. Get yourself a good leather cleaner and give them a thorough cleaning, then treat it with the spray.





As for the smelly, sweaty feet, I wouldn%26#039;t use powder for your feet while wearing flip flops... that will rub onto the shoes. Try a foot spray or even buy clear roll-on deoderant and put it on your foot. Arm pit deoderant isn%26#039;t bad for your feet :) Just put a little on and let it dry before putting your feet in the flip flops.





On a final note, you may want to stay away from any %26quot;cloth%26quot; or %26quot;leather%26quot; flip flops if you sweat too much... stick to a plastic or something.





Good luck!

Reply:You should probally throw them away %26amp; get a $1.00 pair, made of that rubber like stuff so they will not absorbe your sweat.





But since you paid $40.00 for a pair %26amp; want to keep them, Spray them with Lysol, it will kill the smell................
