- Time of past OR future Camino
- Frances 15,16,18
VdlP 23, Invierno 23, Fisterra 23
After 3 Caminos in my hiking boots that I love (Saloman GTX Mids) I think I'll change to trail runners next time
Mainly because of advice from a physio in Spain............ (too much weight on my feet causing knee problems)
But this brings me to the question of socks!
I've never got any blisters in my boots.
I stick to the regime of 2 layers of socks. Thin inner and thick wool outer.
Lots of vaseline on my feet, hikers wool and tape on any hot spots etc etc.
For those who have successfully made the switch from boots to trail runners, I presume you maintained everything else.?
So I should plan to buy trail runners a full size larger to allow for the two layers of socks etc?
