Why aren't underfoot antiperspirant/deodorants as popular as underarm antiperspirant/deodorants?
Stinky pits are generally cause for mortification, yet sweaty, stinky feet are generally cause for laughter. Some men even seem to take pride in the rankness of their feet.
Do you think an underarm stick would work on feet?

I think more and more people wearing sandals has caused the foot stink to ease substantially throughout the US.
I think the underarm stick would work and I also think mouthwash would work as a foot bath.
I’m thinking about trying the underarm stick on my feet. Not that I have odor, but they do sweat. Maybe when I get to the end of the next one and have that little nub left.
They used to have foot sprays, they were cooling and left a powdery residue to absorb the sweat. I have found that using socks that have cotton, wool, and/or bamboo – and no nylon or polyester – helps my feet breathe and they don’t smell as they once did. I do also wear sandals as often as possible.
Thanks, @hearkat. Excessive foot sweating/odor isn’t a problem for me (though underarm always has been). I’m more curious why underarm odor is so much more obsessed with than foot odor. I’ve know a lot of men that seemingly took pride in foot odor that would never be caught with stinky arm pits.
I had a pedicure today, and wore sandals, my feetsies are happy, pretty, and yes, they smell just fine, thank you very much! I spray all my boots with perfume, no stinky feet here.
Other peoples noses are closer to your armpits than to your feet. But yes, you can get sprays designed for feet and shoes.
Sounds like redneck perfume…Foot
Yes, I had considered the fact that some people’s noses are going to be even with your armpits before I asked the question, but, given Western culture’s obsession with odor, I asked it anyway.
