My adventurer daughter, Alaskan Fisheries Observer brother, & twice-to-Iraq Marine son... are all learned in the ways of socks & foot powder. But nothing they do is like relatively-inactive motorcycling in various temps & water conditions.
The easy USAF basic training, '73, in Texas in August taught to alternate shoes day by day so that each pair has time to thoroughly dry-out between wearings which inhibits the growth of various & smelly life forms. My dad came back from Guam (after WW II) with some sort of foot fungus (P.U.) that never went away... but Mexsana medicated powder always worked for the "aroma". Sweat-wicking fabric for socks seems sensible.
So, what brand/construction socks &/or foot powder work for you guys?
Especially those who travel long distances & need to pack light.
