How should I prevent/treat blisters from shoes?

I recently bought a new pair of running shoes and used them right away. I got a blister on the side of my foot where there is a seam between the sole's padding and the material of the shoe. I need to use to shoes to work out but I need a way to prevent more blisters in the future.

How should I prevent/treat blisters from shoes?
I don't know about prevention. Every time I buy a new pair of shoes I get a blister. Put a nice cushy band-aid on the blister, and leave it alone. Don't pop it, the liquid in there is healing your skin.


Your shoes should conform to the shape of your feet soon. If the blister is really bugging you, don't wear the shoes every day. Every other day should be good enough to stretch them out.
Reply:I walked/ran the 3 Day breast cancer walk. (25 miles each day for 3 days) I used a product called GLIDE. It comes in a deoderant stick and it's a slippery product that makes your skin slip back and forth in your shoe (just put it on the problem areas). ALso a pair a double socks (they come that way) from Smart Socks are great. Again it's that double layer that makes your foot not adhere to the shoe and rip /blister the skin. Good luck!
Reply:Sounds like the shoes really don't fit properly and you shouldn't use them. You can try stretching the shoe where the seam is but don't expect miracles.
Reply:use thicker socks???


=P
Reply:There are several possible solutions. Anti-blister socks, you can buy them at any sportswear shop. Glide, again can be purchased at any sporting goods store, and if that fails, I read once where you can put Vaseline on the outside of you sock where you develop blisters. This helps ease the chafing I guess. Good luck.
