Conventions involve enormous amounts of standing and walking. Foot care makes the difference between enjoying your day and limping through it.
The single best convention foot care decision is choosing appropriate footwear. Character accuracy matters, but 8 hours in completely unsuitable shoes will end your convention early.
Gel insoles, moleskin, and blister-prevention padding can be added to almost any shoes. Apply before the convention, not after blisters develop.
Foot elevation, cold therapy, and a foot massage after a convention day accelerate recovery and prepare you for day two.
