[QUOTE="koilife, post: 217321, member: 21898"] Given your comfort and experience in running shoes, I wouldn't recommend boots. You probably want to look for something with good traction/cleats (trail rather than road) with fast drainage. Also, look for something that is comfortable with one, two, and three layers of socks as your feet will swell progressively over the Camino. Lock lacing is critical, and I suspect you've toughened up your feet. I did fine with only one small blister on my downhill little toe because I walked on an incline most of the day and didn't care for it while it was only a hot spot. Other than that, properly fit shoes and a single layer merino sock was all that I needed, even with many days of rain and wet feet. No tape or "glide" used, though I would have had I actually needed them. [/QUOTE]
