Because they're dirty!

You may possibly have Athelete's Foot, or contact dermatitis from the detergent your socks are washed in, or, if they are colored, the dye in the socks. Also, always wash new socks before wearing them. If you wear sneakers with rubber soles, you may have a latex allergy. This is also a slight chance of parasites if you have been wading in water near a sewage outlet.

Keeping all this in mind, keep feet clean and dry, then watch and see. If it worsens or no improvement in 3-5 days, DOCTOR.

I also have some theories that may help you:

If you have itchy feet, it also may be from your socks/carpeting. If you tend to wear socks often, you might have itchy feet. Socks are very fuzzy and they have a lot of cotton. When you remove your socks (and have been wearing them for long time), there are small plots of cotton stuck in the creases of your feet. It may sound weird, but try to get rid of those plots by picking cotton off your feet. That lets air get into the creases of your feet. When the creases are blocked of air, it easily becomes hot and sweaty and begins to itch. Also, for carpeting, you might have dirty carpeting. Try vacuuming your carpet that way you walk on clean floor. WEAR CLEAN SOCKS!

What does it mean when the bottom of feet itch?

When the bottom of your feet itch, it may mean that your feet are relatively dirty. It may also mean an allergic reaction to rubber soles in tennis shoes. It could also point back to your socks. If your socks are dyed, the color dye may cause your feet to itch. Also, it is rare, but if you are wearing socks for a long amount of time, and they start to itch, it may mean "fuzzies" from the socks are embedding in the creases in your feet, which cause the tiny pores in the creases of your feet to not be able to keep airing out. If this is what your case is, I highly recommend either ridding of the fuzz in your feet by (and this may sound weird) removing your sock and picking out as much fuzz as you can. As you can see for some socks, it does stick in the creases of your feet. Or to make time go by faster, rub your foot and most of it will come off. Another reason why your feet may itch is because you might have been in dirtier water with shoes and small parasites might affect your feet. Just keep your feet clean and dry and you should be okay!
