I get blisters wearing my new shoes/ boots. What should I do?Updated 23 days ago

Firstly, many thanks for purchasing LANX shoes, we appreciate your support. Blistering is unfortunately, something that is very common. Especially in shoes that use high quality leather, as we do here at LANX.

Our footwear is also leather lined, which will take a bit of breaking in, however once broken in they will mould to your foot shape and allow for a comfortable fit.

At this stage we would recommend that you persist with wearing them as much as you can, with thick socks and maybe some plasters to cover the affected areas of your feet. This is the fastest way of breaking in leather footwear.

Your friendly and often very helpful local cobblers shop should also be able to stretch your shoes, to allow for a little extra room. This will help make them fit better. To find your local cobblers please visit the Society of Master Shoe Repairers website... https://www.somsr.com/home.

This can also be carried out by LANX if you would like to organise this then please reach out to our customer service team at [email protected] and the team will assist you with this. 

Shoe String will also be able to assist and advise. We divert all our shoe care enquiries to Shoe String, who are an independent UK business located in Market Harborough, England. They are experts in this field and best equipped to answer all shoe care questions. They can be contacted Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm, on either [email protected] or via 01858 467467. You can also visit their website www.shoestringuk.com. When you do contact them please make them aware of the style of LANX shoes you have and the leather the shoe is made from, details of which can be found on the specific product page.
