Preventing Foot Blisters
The key to preventing foot blisters is to purchase shoes that offer the right combination of size, comfort and support.
1 Shop for shoes in the afternoon as feet swell during the day, so midday is the best time for a good fit.
2 Wear the socks you would normally wear when you go for the fitting.
3 Measure your feet every time you purchase shoes, as your shoe size changes as you age.
4 Measure both feet and try on both shoes. If one foot is larger, purchase the larger size for both feet.
5 Check for ample toe room.
6 Look for shoes with no seam in the toe area or toe box.
7 Purchase socks with extra padding in critical areas, often available in athletic styles.
