How do I stop my feet from hurting in work boots?
Just remember to:
- Wear the same socks you wear on the job. Polyester or wool/synthetic blends will keep your feet more comfortable than cotton.
- Test for length.
- Make sure the laces keep your foot comfortably in place.
- Make sure the boots flex at the ball of your foot.
- Try work boots on at the end of the day.
Why do my feet burn in my shoes? Too loose, and you’ll have too much friction causing movement within the shoe, too tight, and you will constrict circulation and perhaps irritate the nerves on top of your feet.
