You are right about them smelling though.

Even foot powder doesn’t help , every time I walked all you could see was powder dust being released into the air.

My son has inherited my smelly sweaty feet...

Even my hands sweat.
Pauline, I am not classy at all.... maybe more old-fashioned!!
At home, l love to be in my scruffs. It’s when l am at my most happiest.

I love how you admitted that trainers do smell, you are very brave!
Then again, you are sporty, l am totally not!! My exercise is got in my garden!!

Besides, flat shoes make the back of my legs hurt.

All my daughters wear trainers... and clodhopper boots but they are tall and look good in them.
I'm 5ft 5 in the morning Art!!!
So I'm not too short!
I love wearing heels on nights out etc. They make me feel a million dollars but when I have to walk far, I'm afraid only my brown suede chelsea boots or trainers will do the job these days!

Re: Trainers

I have got five pairs and need them mainly for running and gardening and also wear them when going for long walks with friends. I also wear them when going shopping making sure I don't get footsore too soon.
Trainers may get smelly if they are worn without socks and if worn for too long and not cared for properly. And I'd venture to say that not everyone has sweaty feet which often are a major reason for smelly trainers.

I couldn't imagine wearing anything without socks....well, apart from sandals that is. But trainers without socks, no thanks!

Re: Trainers

I wear trainers most of the time. Merrell being the preferred make. Mrs mart would soon tell me if they made my feet smell but I don't seem to be prone to that. I once had a Clarkes leather shoes that were awfully pongy by the end of a summer's day. I was made to keep them outside.
