Shoes are suffering. Save them.

Sweaty feet are a moisture problem; stinky shoes are what happens when you ignore it. Clinical-strength antiperspirant lotion stops sweat at the source (yes, lotion — real foot antiperspirant sprays basically don't exist), cedar insoles absorb what escapes, and powder keeps the shoes livable between washes.
