Blisters happen when something rubs against your skin too hard for too long. New shoes are often tight or rough, so they push and pull the skin like a taffy machine, making little pockets of fluid called blisters. These pockets feel sore because they're filled with liquid that presses on the skin underneath.
Examples
- Wearing a brand-new pair of shoes for an hour can cause your feet to feel like they're on fire.
- Walking long distances without socks increases the chance of getting blisters from new shoes.
- A rough shoe surface rubbing against the toes can form blisters in just minutes.
