Do Nike Frees make your feet smell?

anus of Satan.

I made an account mainly so I could ask this question. I never really had a problem with foot odor in the past with any other shoe, but I got a pair of Nike Frees and the first thing I noticed was that they make my feet smell like the anus of Satan. I've been wearing them a lot lately because I'm constantly on my feet at work and my other shoes aren't as comfortable, but when I get home and take them off I get a huge waft of my own feet without even putting my face near them. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone know why this happens?

And OP, I don't have any experience with Nike Frees, but I always noticed whenever I had Nike's, they'd get pretty funky after a month or two. The ones I had were pretty cushion-y and absorbed sweat quite a bit though. But it's natural for your feet to smell after a while, no matter what shoes you have. Plus there's any number of things it could possibly be: infrequently changing socks, not wearing socks, working long hours, exercise, stress, foot fungus, etc...

In any case, stinky feet aren't too big of a deal. In fact, depending on the situation, stinky feet can be pretty useful, like if you're subtly trying to get rid of annoying in-laws or you wanna wake up a lazy spouse. Normally I'd offer suggestions to treat your foot smell, but then again, I like stinky feet, so you could them right on my face and I wouldn't complain.

Oh, and welcome to TFS.

It's so weird for me since I didn't even have foot odor to this degree in high school when I was on the track team. None of my running shoes smelled at all, and I've had a variety of them from Asics to Nikes Maybe the material is just bad in Frees...or my shoes are small portals into someone's butthole.

Oh yeah I do have fun with them sometimes! When my friends are being annoying I take my shoe off if I'm wearing the ones in question and let wind work its magic

It could be. Are they thinner shoes or is there a lot of cushion near the soles or opening? I found that New Balance shoes tend to make my feet reek, which for me is awesome. They tend to be fairly tight near the ankles, sealing a lot of the sweat/smell in. If your shoes feel like they hug your feet tight, it could be sealing in the stink, making it worse as the day goes on.

And now I can't get the image out of my head of someone sticking their feet into shoes and then halfway around the world, some poor person has a pair of feet sticking out of his a** during an important business meeting.

If you need to, you could also get a small battery-operated dollar store fan, set it to low and aim it at your feet so it gently wafts the scent towards unsuspecting victims.

They're made pretty simple. The insoles aren't very thick, and I talked about it with my boyfriend when he freaked out as I took them off. He never wore Frees himself before but said they don't look like the ventilation is too great.

LOOL I pictured someone in an office just screaming in pain out of the blue like "DAMN IT TOM, I TOLD YOU TO STOP SHOVING THINGS UP MY a** FROM BEHIND DURING WORK! I'M TAKING THIS TO HR"
