I do (as you regulars out there will know) love my flats, but even though they can be gorgeously comfortable, half the time I seem to get more blisters with them than impossibly high heels - especially on my little toes and behind the heel. Tabio sockettes are meant to solve this exact problem. Rather excitingly, they come in all sorts of lace styles, as well as the more classic plain colours. Having never tried them, I'm not sure how well they work in practice - evidently I prefer bandaging my feet for days on end afterwards and having to wear Uggs in July because everything else rubs my battered blistered toes! The price ranges from £5.50 upwards and if you're an experienced Tabio sockette wearer and you love or hate them, let me know.
