Blister from running

So I got brand new running shoes- Saucony. They are not tight at all- I wear an 11 shoe- but order a 12 sneaker because I want a roomy toe box. (My previous pair were a size 12 saucony-- no issue with them.)

I've done 1 treadmill run in them- no issue. My 1st outdoor run in them earned me a blister on the bottom of my fourth toe. For today's run I figured I'd put a bandaid on it-- But somehow I managed to bandage the wrong toe. Ugg. So it a bit bigger today.

Ive never dealt with blisters- what's best in care for them? I won't run again till Saturday to give it a rest.

Get some better socks. That's what helps me.

That's so odd! Sauconies are known for having a wider toe box too. I agree about looking to your socks.

I use blister bandaids. They're...puffy and cushioning?
