For skin treatment, zinc oxide is used primarily as a barrier that protects skin from further external irritations. Hence its predominant use as a diaper rash treatment. Since Athlete's foot originates from fungal infection, I don't think it will be any good in resolving the issue. Perhaps it may be used on top of fungicial cream e.g. lamisil or darktarin to seal out wetness / sweat and prevent further irritation. Good Luck.
