    • Okay so now I need some tea bags.
      Also, quick question, putting your shoe in the sun when you get back immediately does it help?

      • Yes it does
        It helps to dry out the moist in the shoe due to the long hours of your legs being in it. Especially for those with sweaty palm and feet. It’s good. Putting some talc powder would also do.
