"The very few times I have gotten blisters have been when my socks got wet"
Then I guess that is my whole problem right there. I thought having sweaty socks was just a result of all the activity and being, well, hot. My feet are always soaked with sweat, and so are the socks when I take the shoes off. I'm kicking myself for spending a lot of money on "special socks" that supposedly wick away moisture. I notice no difference between a regular sock and the expensive smartwool socks. My feet just sweat, period.
Common sense tells me if I use a liner sock and add another layer like that, it'll just make my feet more hot and sweat even more. Just like wearing multiple layers of clothing you're warmer, or do I have this wrong? Can you tell me a specific brand and model of liner sock to buy?
Well I did have the boots very tight, I thought they were supposed to be as tight as possible without being contricting. If the boot is looser in general, doesn't that cause more movement inside the shoe, which is friction ?
