Smelly-Ass Shoes

Listen, I have a dilemma. 


I have this cute pair of flats by Rocket Dog and the other day I wore them for a little while and after taking them off...my feet smelled like they were in the process of becoming decomposed. 
                                                           -Aren't these puppies cute?- 
If you don't know what that smells like kiddos you need to meet my mothers husband. 
He has the worst foot odor in the world. Trust me there is no contest there. 
He used to get home and take off his shoes, and I kid you not the smell was so pungent that you could literally feel it hit the back of your throat and spew out of your eye sockets. 
Sick, I know. I feel sick thinking about it.
I should stop thinking about it now. Really stop it Rox.

I recall posting the subject of my affection (other than my precious family), shoes recently. I love shoes.
Just this morning getting into my car I realized that there are 3 pairs of shoes in the front seat, why?
I'm not sure. I may need them later?

Ok so back to my dilemma. After the acrid odor from my feet hit me I realized 'I might have to retire these shoes'. Suddenly feeling sick again.
They aren't used up (that much) and just because they are grey/black where my feet are placed in them does not mean that they are no longer wearable (almost).
If I wear them you can't tell from the outside. Maybe I am just crazy. They don't need to be tossed out like a bag of trash.
I could:

A: Wash them, really good
B: Put some foot powder in them
C: Use them as river flats
D: Wear them till they bust at the seams
E: Let them sit in my closet by the older shoes and wear only when deemed necessary
    So many choices.

    These shoes are less than a year old, but for some reason I thought they were the perfect pair of flats to wear with everything. Perfect for regular jeans, shorts, half pants, dresses, hell even no clothes.
    I wear them everywhere....in the hot ass desert, in the mall, in the grocery store, backyard, at work, pshhh wherever the hell I please. These are just those kind of shoes that you can do that to. 
    (Maybe this is why I am in this jam...damn you Arizona heat!) 
    I try to work it out where I have the shoes on and whenever I get the chance to pull my feet out to let them breathe a little I do, then slip them back on. 
    Now that I think of it there were a few times to many when I put them back on and they were a bit saturated. fuck. Should have air dried them! 

    Oh let me mention this before you get the wrong impression, I do NOT have smelly ass feet, I am not a  sweaty kind of person, nor do I have fungus feet or the like. 
    I have beautiful feet. Pedicures whenever I can. Yes my feet get dry sometimes, but I try to care for my feet the best I can. I try to keep them looking their best whenever I have on open toed shoes. And open toed shoes are the best, they let my beautiful toes breathe and be seen. 
    LOOK IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME, then fuck you. 

    And fuck all this shit I am keeping the smelly shoes.
