Deodorizing manufacture for the foot using ion exchange material

A deodorant manufacture configured into a shaped article of the category customarily worn on the foot;

• said article comprising anion exchange material and the configuration of said article, when worn in the normally intended manner, being such that a portion of the material of the article is in close juxtaposition to the foot of the wearer;
• the effective surface area of said portion of the material of the article being sufficiently large and so located that it covers a substantial portion of that area of the foot which exudes odorant and said portion of the material of said article including anion exchange sites;
• and
• said anion exchange material being in non-fluid and essentially non-dispersible, substantially extended form and having anion exchange sites capable of substantially sorbing anions from said odorant at the pH existing in the region of contact between said material and said odorant;
• any components of said material that are endowed with anion exchange sites and are grossly discernible as distinct from one another being, when considered as a group, constrained against any significant flowing so that these components as a group exhibit the characteristic of being non-fluid and essentially non-dispersible.
