Wash feet : Consider soaking in warm water and tea bags, the tea bags have tannic acid which help dry out sweat glands. His old sneakers just throw out. But, new ones should be sprayed with shoe deodorizes. The feet to can be sprayed to help prevent sweating. (check local pharmacy for various sprays, the spray for the shoe is not the same for the foot.).

Tanic acid: Try brewing dilute tea and let it cool and then soak his feet daily for about 20 min.
