For sweaty feet & shoe odor

Developed and manufactured in Germany
Two areas, one set: against sweaty feet and shoe odor
The improved foot and shoe powder works with a combination of odor-neutralizing active ingredients as well as mint and sage extracts. It binds moisture and odors in the shoe - for greater confidence when you take off your shoes.
Less sweat: The gel reduces sweat production wherever you apply it - on your feet, but also on your hands or (sparingly, avoiding the eye area) on your face.
Less odor: Body odor develops when bacteria on the skin break down sweat. Less sweat means less of a basis for odor.
Let the gel absorb before putting on socks or clothing, as it may otherwise cause discoloration.
Powder - in shoes in the morning: Before putting on your shoes, sprinkle a small amount of odaban® foot and shoe powder evenly into both shoes and distribute it by shaking the shoes.
For shoes worn daily, use for 7 consecutive days. Simply treat rarely worn shoes before putting them on.
Gel - on feet in the evening: Apply the odaban® antiperspirant gel thinly to clean, completely dry feet (including between the toes) in the evening and let it absorb. Wash as usual in the morning. Use regularly during the first few days; afterwards, 1-2 times per week as needed is usually sufficient.
Use the gel only on healthy, intact skin - not in the intimate area or around the eyes. Please follow the instructions for use on the packaging.

Taking off your shoes at friends’ homes, long days in work or sports shoes, open shoes in summer: Tap a situation.

Work shoes, safety shoes, and sneakers after training: The longer you wear them, the warmer and more humid it gets inside the shoe. And that’s exactly where the odor settles.
The powder binds moisture and odors directly in the shoe - including work and sports shoes. The gel used in the evening helps reduce sweating on the feet.
Everyone takes off their shoes - and you briefly consider just leaving yours on. Many people know this moment of hesitation. It doesn't have to be that way.
The gel reduces sweating on the feet, while the powder neutralizes odor in the shoe. This way, you tackle both causes at the same time.
Heat builds up inside lined boots and winter footwear. Your feet sweat even when it’s cold outside - and the lining absorbs the odor.
The gel stops foot sweat. The powder absorbs moisture inside the boot and neutralizes odor.
Shoes rarely dry properly after exercise. Moisture and heat linger - and so does the odor, ready to return at your next workout.
Sprinkle a little powder into your sports shoes and shake to distribute it. Apply the gel in the evening so your feet sweat less during training.
The powder absorbs moisture - but it doesn’t change how much your feet sweat. That’s where odaban® Gel comes in: apply it to dry feet in the evening and leave it on overnight.
The foot set: gel for your feet, powder for your shoes - cheaper than buying separately.
| When | |
|---|---|
| Evenings | Gel: apply a small amount in a thin layer to clean, dry feet and let it absorb |
| Mornings | Wash your feet, then sprinkle some powder into both shoes |
| Week 1 | Apply powder daily to shoes worn each day, and use the gel every evening |
| Afterward | Usually use the gel 1–2× per week; also treat shoes that are worn rarely before putting them on |
Use the gel only on healthy, intact skin, not in the intimate area or around the eyes. It may cause slight tingling at first - if it burns, take a break for one night. Please follow the instructions for use on the packaging.
odaban® Foot and Shoe Powder eliminates unwanted odors from feet and shoes. The often-embarrassing smell is caused exclusively by certain skin bacteria. These bacteria attach themselves to originally odorless foot sweat, break it down, and produce unpleasant odors. odaban® Foot and Shoe Powder effectively targets these odor-causing bacteria.
The balance of the skin’s natural protective barrier remains unaffected. With its germ-reducing and gently revitalizing ingredients, odaban Foot and Shoe Powder is therefore also ideal for caring for both feet and shoes.
Fresh sweat barely smells. Only bacteria break it down - and in a warm, damp shoe, they thrive. Foot deodorant only masks the smell. The odaban® Foot Set tackles both causes.
Apply the gel to your feet and sprinkle the powder into your shoes. Individual results may vary.
The application
Two applications, two tasks: The gel reduces foot sweat overnight, while the powder keeps your shoes fresh during the day.
Apply a small amount thinly to clean, completely dry feet - including between the toes. Let it absorb; it works overnight.
Wash feet as usual. Before putting them on, sprinkle a little powder into both shoes and distribute it by shaking.
The powder absorbs moisture and odors in your shoes. Simply treat shoes you rarely wear before putting them on.
When does it take effect?
Wichtig: Gel nur auf vollständig trockene, unverletzte Haut, nicht direkt nach dem Duschen.
Mild tingling at the beginning is possible.
The powder works where odor originates: inside the shoe. Cornstarch and magnesium carbonate absorb moisture, while potassium alum and zinc neutralize odors. Sage and mint extracts provide freshness.
Dermatest GmbH (Münster) tested odaban® Foot Powder in February 2026 in a patch test: 30 healthy participants aged 18 and over, with various skin types, some with sensitive skin. The powder was left on the skin under a patch for 24 hours.
Result: None of the 30 participants showed any skin changes in the test area after 24, 48, or 72 hours. According to the report, the product was very well tolerated.

Fresh sweat hardly smells. The typical odor develops when bacteria break down sweat - and warm, damp shoes provide ideal conditions for them.
It absorbs moisture and traps odors where they occur. It does not reduce sweating on the feet.

Do your feet sweat heavily? Then the foot set with gel + powder is the better choice - and more affordable than buying them separately.
Apply the gel only to dry, intact skin. Do not use in the intimate area or around the eyes. Individual results may vary.
Common sage (Salvia officinalis) is one of the best-known medicinal plants for excessive sweating. Its effectiveness is mainly due to its tannins, such as rosmarinic acid.
Sage has only a mild sweat-reducing effect. Only an antiperspirant can stop sweating. Apply the odaban® Gel to dry feet in the evening. It reduces sweat production at its source.

Because foot sweat and shoe odor originate in two places. The gel reduces sweat on the feet, while the powder neutralizes the odor that has settled in the shoes. Caring for just your feet is often not enough as long as the shoes continue to smell. How do I use the set?
