On this episode we discuss the most basic of basics in backpacking or hiking. Preventing the blister. After all, your feet are your most important piece of gear that will ultimately get you to where you want to go. AND no one likes when they can’t walk because of a blister. We will also share tips on how to prevent, and what to do if you start getting a blister. Also, is there really a trick to preventing a blister?
What we talk about:
- Scott hates Oslo Boots
- Ariane loves Oslo Boots

- Good Socks are the key
- Nobody knows your feet better than you. STOP listening to “what’s the best”?
