Why do my feet get smelly when i don't wear socks? is this okay?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below.: Feet perspire and socks are not absorbing it. Bacteria and materail from shoe interact with this to create bad odor. Wear socks and change regularly, let feet air out when possible. A small amount of powder in shoes may be helpful as well as soaking.
