Gold Bond Maximum Strength Foot Powder, 10 Ounces

Good stuff

I use this foot powder as a deodorizer in my shoes, especially boots. Have been using it for many years. I highly recommend

I do a great deal of hiking, sometimes going more than twenty miles a day in the heat, and will occasionally end up with a rash between my legs. It isn't as before I switched away from cotton briefs, but it does still occur now and again. I like to keep a small shaker of this in my pack to dry up when this happens. Basically, if I feel a rash coming on, I'll powder my inner thighs/crotch area and it will stop things from getting out of hand. The cool sensation helps numb any existing aggravated skin, which is a plus over the standard Gold Bond. As a caveat, though, it is pretty potent stuff, so you may want to just go with the extra strength (the green bottle) instead if you have sensitive skin or your rash is already pretty far advanced. I'll also use this on my feet when switching socks to help keep blisters down. I use two layers of socks, a liner and an outer sock, and though the liners are soft they are also snug, so this helps me slide them on my feet. Naturally the skin of your feet is less sensitive than that of your inner thigh, so here the Maximum Strength is probably okay for just about anyone.

This product is great, but only use it as directed on your feet. Do not, and I repeat, do not use this on "the boys". If you do, it will be like a thousand elves jumping into your pants to stab "the boys" with a thousand daggers. The pain is so intense that any efforts to put out the fire will just make it worse. You will just have to sit there screaming into your pillow wishing for the sweet release of death until the fire subsides. The following day, you will be walking as if you have just ridden a horse for 3 months straight and smoke will still be rising out of your pants as "the boys" continue to smolder. So, unless you like "roasted nuts", don't use this on "the boys"

Very mild scent which I like. You wouldn't want people to think you're trying to mask a dead body smell, although it's just the stink of your feet. Luckily, I don't have that stink of a problem. It's just that I wear sneakers all day everyday at work, and I net around 10k-12k steps each day. With this powder on, my feet sweat a lot less! The sweat from wearing tight shoes for long hours is almost gone. I guess it makes me feel less dirty. My feet are also less tired. But I don't know if it's a placebo effect or what. Haha. I sprinkle a little inside my socks so it doesn't smear white powder all over my shoes. And it works for me!
