- Tight footwear
- Wearing socks that don’t let your feet ventilate properly
- Hyperhidrosis which is condition that makes you sweat heavily.
- Walking barefoot on damp, warm places. These kinds of places are the perfect place for the fungi to spread: spas, gyms, pools, etc.
- Smoking
- People who in their work have their hands wet all the time.
