How to Save Your Feet From the Dreaded New-Boot Blisters

How To Protect Your Feet From Blisters From New Boots

Since I’m sure you all were curious about the status of my feet, I thought I’d give you a little update. Currently, I’m recovering from an attempt to break in a new pair of seemingly harmless ankle boots, and if my ankles could scream, you wouldn’t be able to hear anything else.

And I know I’m not alone. People complain all winter long about the (admittedly aggressively first-world) struggle of having to break in the new boots they bought specially for the season. It doesn’t matter if they’re ankle boots, OTK books, Bean Boots—no foot is safe from the imminent pain of new-boot blisters. And while preventing them entirely might be a near impossibility for some (read: me), there is a way to keep your poor little feet safe. Here are a few of them:

1. Blister Block

Someone told me about this back when I was in middle school and was first making the real move from Converse to ballet flats, and I remember thinking that it was a miracle product. Basically, it’s a balm that you roll over any part of your foot that could potentially be an at-risk-for-blisters zone, and it does all the protective work for you. Unfortunately, it’s not entirely foolproof—depending on the severity of your shoes, how long you wear them, and how often you walk around, you could still experience some degree of painful rubbing, but it’s not nearly as bad as it is without.

2. Big Band-Aids

Just slap a bandage on the sensitive area and, voila, you’re done. I recommend the bigger fabric ones, mostly because they’re more flexible to the backs of your ankles and they don’t come loose as quickly as smaller Band-Aids do.

3. Blister Band-Aids, for when your big Band-Aids ultimately fail you

The gels in these Band-Aids are raised in order to protect the blistered area from further rubbing once the bandage is in place. These were a godsend after I got a blister the size of a large grape on the side of my foot after my first music festival experience.

4. Thick socks

You’re walking all day and wading through mud, dust, and muck. You’ve got to be careful with your feet when working in construction, farming, or outdoors in general. Maintaining healthy feet starts at home with the socks you wear. Protect your feet from the dirt by buying socks made from recycled plastic. It’s important to keep your feet dry and protected after a long day out on the road.

5. Prep time

The best way to ensure that your boot-wearing experience is as comfortable as possible is to take some time to break them in before you actually wear them out into the world. If you’re not doing anything one afternoon, instead of flopping down on the couch, just throw on your shoes and walk around your living room for a while. It’ll loosen up the boots, and you’ll know what you’re in for, foot rubbing-wise when you do ultimately want to wear them out.
