After you take a shower, take the time to dry your whole foot, and between each toe. Seriously, it will really help.
Get some foot powder, too. If that seems too messy, Odor Eaters has a spray-on product that works almost as well.
Wash your socks well and change them after workouts, excessive activity, etc. Once in awhile I bleach my sweat socks to make them look new & kill any bacteria.
Lotions are often helpful, too. Especially minty ones.

Do you feet only smell when you wear a certain pair of shoes or socks? Do they smell worse when you wear your shoes for a really long time? Is it worse at a certain time of the month? Try to pay attention to what causes the "sometimes".
For instance, I have a pair of shoes that are really comfortable, but they cause my feet to sweat and stink really badly. I've also noticed that my feet will smell if I have to wear nylons all day.
When you figure out what causes the sometimes, you'll be able to attack the problem directly, rather than trying a bunch of random things that may or may not help.

There are a lot of ways to solve this problem.
You could try washing your feet with soap, drying them, and putting on a clean pair of socks right before putting your shoes on.
Spray perfume on your feet before going places.
Spend a few dollars on medicated foot powder.
Putting car air fresheners or fabric fresheners in your shoes (I know it sounds weird but it helps)
That's all I've got
Hope this helps
Please rate :)

I just had a flashback to the days when I usede to listen to AM talk radio:

I have the perfect product for you; it will keep your feet happy, healthy, smooth and silky, and always smelling fresh. It's called, "Bare Foot, Foot Scrub" the brand name is "Freemans" and it's been mentioned in Seventeen Magazine and it works great. They have many different kinds, like Peppermint and Plum, and Lemon and Sage, and a bunch of others -- they're perfect.

Switch socks often, take of shoes in the house, put baby powder in your shoes, buy shoe freshener things
