sometimes people get blisters if the socks or insoles are slippery, or if the shoes are too big or if one is flatfooted. try some rubber corks the smell can be killler though so add antiperspirant to your ceremony  |

when gettin new shoesies, measure not only the length of the feet, also the width. a small difference can mean a lot in terms of comfort and stability among other things

when i get blisters, i always cut them open with a sterile instrument to let the water out otherwise they will harden into callouses which are harder to treat

change your sock garment, your feet could be allergic to some like nylon or poly, try cotton instead

blisters are caused by friction
