    Have you tried SmartWool socks? I've heard good things about them.

    Thick, roomy merino wool socks. When walking about, wear sheepskin slippers with no synthetic soles.

    Gold Bond powder. Lots of it. Inside your sock first thing. I have the same problem.

    Are your feet sweaty because they are too hot or do you just have sweaty feet? There is a difference I think.

    Second the Gold Bond powder method. The blue one makes your feet tingle, but the yellow one is fine.

    I prefer the blue gold bond. I think it's stronger? I also put deodorant/antiperspirant on my feet. I do try to keep foot deo separate from my pit deo
