Toenail Fungus.  You pick this up pretty much the same way you do athlete’s foot.  About ½ of us will get it by age 70.  It is more difficult to treat, so prevention is the key.  Prevention is similar as well with the added recommendation of not wearing nail polish on the toes. Protective shoes such as sandals and shower shoes when you are in public pool areas and public showers and locker rooms.  Wearing dry airy shoes and socks is recommended.  These are all types of non leather shoes and vegan sneakers.  The sandals and flip-flops are more about protection from picking up the fungus.  Dry airy shoes and socks is about keeping your feet dry and letting them breathe.  Letting your feet breathe and stay dry is not something leather does well.  Nice casual non leather shoes are what you want.
