I recently ran across this HikeGoo stuff for preventing feet blisters and decided to give it a shot on my upcoming trip on Eagle Rock Loop in AR. I’ve been getting a blister in the ball of my right foot the last couple of times out.
Has anybody used it?
It’s a goo-cream. Any ideas on how to repackage it?
I’ve carried Sportslick (basically the same thing) in .25 ounce polyethylene containers from REI before.
Ha! I knew I was missing something obvious. I've got containers like that we use for salad dressing.
:-)
Be careful man
I pre-tape my problem areas with leukotape before I leave for a trip. It will stay on for a week if I let it, even if I spent a lot of time in water.
Tried anti-blister creams years ago, but with limited success. Zinc oxide seemed to work as well as anything for me, and can be a lot cheaper when bought as diaper rash cream (try to find at least 40%).
