Hi there,
My father has a large lump on the back of his heel, we think it is probably Haglund's Deformity. He bought a pair of Oboz Sawtooths, causing quite the painful, deep blister on his morning walks. The Sawtooth seems to be quite a rigid shoe. We wonder if anyone could recommend a shoe, perhaps something a bit softer with more give in it, for the Camino this April 2019, that might be better for his heel? Or any ideas how to manage the condition on the Camino?
Thanks so much
