    Follow-up question: do you wash your feet extra or do you also think that the shower gel water below will fix that?

      You fucking bet I scrub my feet. I rock climb and as most climbers do I wear my climbing shoes without socks, which also means they collect a ton of dead skin cells and sweat which makes them smell absolutely vile. I spray them all the time with a multitude of bacteria and fungus killing products, even wash them from time to time, but there’s no real solution. I just treat them as biohazard when not climbing. So yes, I make an effort to thoroughly scrub my feet to ensure they don’t retain the smell and to try to reduce how many dead cells end up in the shoes.

      I’ve got really bad calluses so yeah I usually give them a good rough scrub with a coarse washcloth.

      I’m 196cm tall. Do you know how far I need to go down to wash them? I trust trickling down soapy water will fix that.

      If you don’t wash your feet then you are not allowed in my house.
