We have foot powder we put in sneakers.

I soak the sneakers in vinegar and then wash in my washing machine.

I've been thinking of buying the hibiclens soap

What shoes and socks is she wearing? We have more success with leather sneakers that have more rigid insoles vs sneakers that have fabric uppers and cushier insoles. In either case it helps if you can pull out the insole and let it air out in between wears, wash frequently with oxy clean. DD doesn't have as much of an issue but DS - oh my god.

We use Lume cream on DD’s stinky feet. It does work but makes her feet peel.

Dettol soap.
Foot powder.
Wash her socks like a pp suggested, and get her new shoes. You could put odor eaters in her shoes.

Socks.

Wool socks. She needs AT LEAST two pair of shoes. No wearing shoes two days in a row. Get some deodorant balls to put in her shoes.

My youngest son has stinky, sweaty feet. Like we know who wore what socks because his are crunchy. We buy all natural socks - cotton and wool, and it helps tremendously.

Probably better to get socks with some merino wool. Go to REI.

You can use deodorant on feet.

What material are her socks? Get all cotton ones.

Wash her feet with PanOxyl. The benzoyl peroxide will help kill some of the bacteria causing this. Make sure you are SCRUBBING her feet- in between the toes, etc. don’t let her wear the same shoes two days in a row. Either get new socks or put all her socks in the hottest bath water you can with borax and bleach and then run them through two hot cycles in the washer.

Are her feet sweatier than normal? Wash her feet with antibacterial soap and scrub. Wool socks instead of cotton and avoid nylon. It’s harder to de-funkify shoes that are already smelly than it is to keep new shoes from smelling. A wash in the washing machine with a small amount of bleach or with vinegar to kill bacteria, and then get some boot dryers and dry out the shoes every night. As a last resort, dryses or similar antiperspirant for the feet can help, but I’m not sure about their safety with a young child.

If they’re still smelling after the bath you didn’t wash them well and there’s still bacteria. Scrub with antibacterial soap or hibiclens for two minutes

My kids are not allowed to wear the same pair of shoes two days in a row. Airing them out overnight is not sufficient! Throw out the shoes and get at least two pairs of new ones and never allow them to repeat a wear. Then the kid wash their feet with antibacterial stuff and dry between their toes.

She wears dirty socks

Socks with holes

The sneakers with no socks
