First of all I will discuss about why the smell of the foot becomes unpleasant, the cause is :

  3. The use of socks and closed footwear throughout the day
  4. Metabolic Syndrome
  5. Treatment

You also can sprinkle baking soda on the shoe to remove the smell, let stand for a night and clean it in the morning.

  • Tea

Steps : Soak the bag or tea powder (you can use any tea, either black tea or green tea) in a bucket or basin that contains warm water for 10 minutes, put your feet in a tea bath and sit back for a few minutes.
