I recently bought a new pair from Dr. C, and unfortunately, it hasn't been the best experience. On the very first day of wearing them (with my usual low ankle socks), I ended up with a painful blister. I normally wear this kind of sock with similar shoe styles and don’t usually have this issue, so it was a letdown.

To add to that, less than 10 days in and I’m already seeing some wear on the insole, which honestly makes me question the quality.

Before I pass these shoes on to someone else, does anyone have tips for avoiding blisters—aside from switching to high socks? Would appreciate any advice!

I had the same experience from 2 different pairs of same brand that I bought from Shopee. Less than a month of wear for the first pair and same goes to 2nd pair which I bought several months later. Never the same issue with other brands.

FYI. I rather you buy Bata walking shoes. These shoes from Dr Cardin you need to buy those tebal socks for footbal, you van buy cheap one in Sports Direct.

Wear thicker socks till upper ankle?

Dr cardin is local brand right ? Not to be mistaken with the famous dr martens.
I would avoid such shoes that lack structure. It hugs your feet and have friction

I don't have problem with another brand until i switched to this poor quality brand from Dr. C. Pretty regret!

change your stockin la... mid height, terus settle... need to open tered meh?

I bought low cut stocking to try before and if size not ngam, it will start sliding out when you start walking. Damn annoying and end up same thing like yours. I just use mid height to be safe.

U buy expensive Nike puma if same pattern shoe also will have same issue one.

I think Asics is a good brand

Want quality? Want cheap ? Buy Pallas cotton shoes, even without socks, your foot skin won't get blisters. Also since cotton is breathable the foot won't smelly when wear whole day

Buy medifeet or Skechers. Won't go wrong with both of them.

rubber glue soft cloth to friction part.
