When I get home from school my feet and the insides of my shoes always stink really bad. I do a lot of running in gym class and I THINK that's what causes it but I'm not sure of it. I have bought different shoes before but when I get home they still stink. I am kind of embarrassed because I'm afraid to take my shoes off at my friends' houses in case my feet are smelly (whcih they probably would be). Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is there a way I can get clean smelling feet after a day at school?
