Deodorant: Try using deodorant spray first to help soak up the sweat. Use armpit deodorant (cheaper than foot powder). Afterwards, if smell continues use anti fungal cream. It's not unusual as a lot of americans have this problem. Very commonly seen today.

Work at it...: First off, make sure your feet stay dry and clean. Wash between the toes each day and wear fresh socks. •acrylic cushion sock fabric maintains resiliency and provides a more natural yielding, forgiving, dynamic environment for the foot (like walking barefoot in grass or sand). •result: more protection, more comfort. Secondly, use drying agents directly on the foot, like certain-dry or drysol.

Deodorant : Besides cleaning your feet dry soaking in water and vinaigrette. There are also foot deodorant available. Don't wear same shoes 2days in a row and get moisture wicking socks.
