Seconding the Crocs. I have a pair of crocs sandals that I love because I don't have to worry about them getting wet! But yeah, watch the sunscreen. Learned that the hard way.
This! ^ I took Mr & Mrs DD's advice and have done this for the past 3 trips (2 of them were 2 week trips, too) and haven't had one blister since. I slather the Vaseline on and then wear NON cotton footies with my sneakers. It sounds gross but it is not! My feet feel fabulous at night and there's no Vaseline residue. I do the same process during out midday breaks and put on clean footies. I wish I had known about this sooner because I suffered with horrible blisters every.single.trip. Not anymore! Thank you again @Mr & Mrs DDWe wear tennis shoes. We used to get terrible blisters on every single trip. We started greasing our feet up, and we have not had any blister problems since. Worked like a charm for us.
EXACTLY right. We feel the same way. It's not messy and it works!!This! ^ I took Mr & Mrs DD's advice and have done this for the past 3 trips (2 of them were 2 week trips, too) and haven't had one blister since.

Good thread.
I have plantar fascitis but I HATE my feet being hot so not a fan of sneakers in summer. Flat shoes are OUT with PF.
I have ordered body glide, I have compeeds & Bandaids for blisters, will toss in the moleskin as well. (got HUGE blisters in Vegas last month)
Ordered Croc 3" wedges (SUPER comfy; I am on my feet all day & they rock), plan to take Sofft 2.5" wedges, Fit flops & just ordered some ASICS. (I have orthotic inserts for them as well.
Have not had issues with feet in past but PF has been flaring more the last year so I am SUPER paranoid with 10 days at parks. Going to BE PREPARED.
Only 40 lbs. allowed for suitcase--but I won't skimp on shoes!!!
