Work at it...: First off, make sure your feet stay dry and clean. Wash between the toes each day and wear fresh socks. Secondly, use drying agents directly on the foot, like certain-dry or drysol. There is a new product by tetra corp. Called "clean sweep" that is a antimicrobial shoe spray and it kills organisms that can live in shoes. It is available at a lot of podiatrists offices.
