[QUOTE="TerryB, post: 105800, member: 2645"] Hi Aine, In spite of the above quote, blisters are NOT inevitable! Close fitting thin liner socks under thicker outers means that the friction is taken up between the layers, not between the socks and your skin. Compeed does seem to work for most people but it will not adhere to my skin! Tried it once and it came off with an hour. With a 'hot spot' (best to stop as soon as you feel any heat or pressure) I used a strip of [i]Dermomed Fix[/i] available at most Farmacias on the Camino. The last three years walking the Camino I have never had a blister :D Anne (annakappa on 27 Aug 2012, 23:06 ) is right, good fitting boots / shoes will feel right from the word go. If there is a tight spot or something rubbing it would be better to try a half size bigger or a different brand. Look after your feet and your feet will look after you :) Have a marvellous Camino Tio Tel [/QUOTE]
