A few weeks back I purchased a pair of Asolo TPS 520s to replace my Vasque Sundowner MX2s from about 9 years ago. Walking around in them they had been fantastic with just light hiking socks and no liners on when all these years I've used liners.
This weekend I paid the price going from Harpers Ferry to Snickers Gap in 90+ heat and within the first mile they chewed up my heels to the tune of half dollar sized blisters. The sweat was so bad that moleskin, duct tape, band aids...nothing would stay in place!
Would the liners really make that big of a difference? If the socks don't make a change what else can I do?
