First, Ive owned a pair of Lasportiva makalues in the past. I like them because my ankles are weak from years of hiking and the support is great, plus thier great 3 season boots. I guess I forgot how tough they are to break in. I went up the Osseo trail on Flume and to say I got blisters is like saying the Artic is chilly. Im open for any suggestions to survive the break in period. I am now armed with athletic tape and bandages but am open to any tips.
P.S.They fit right, I tried wearing them very tight to eliminate friction and heallift but that sure didnt help. At 270 bucks, I must overcome this breakin period, I tried lighter boots but my ankles "roll" and one of these days I wont catch them in time, as soloist that could be trouble.
Thanks for any tips.
