with out ripping them off and causing yourself extreme mental trauma... :)
get a callous scrubber from a pharmacy.
they are about 5 dollars and look like a file with gritty sand on it
you just scrub the callous away until you have soft skin.
Just tear them off, it's kinda painful at first, but it goes away pretty quickly
From wiki: Most corns and calluses located under the foot are caused by the pressure of the foot bones against the skin, preventing it from moving with the shoe or the ground. While well-fitting shoes will help some of these problems, occasionally some other degree of intervention is required to completely rid the foot of the problem. The most basic treatment is to put a friction-reducing insole or material into the shoe, or against the foot. In some cases, this will reduce the painfulness without actually making the callus go away
My brother plays guitar, and he rips them off when they get too painful, which is kind of disgusting :(
