    Blisters on the balls of my feet are a recurring problem if/when I walk more than 5-6 km without rest or if I repeat same over 2+ days. What can I do regarding footwear, socks, lubricants etc, to avoid or prevent having to tape the ball of my foot?

    Will this still work if you’re running through waterand your feet get soaked?

      Hard to say for these reasons:
      ▶ Firstly, whether the tape stays on or not will be determined by the strength of the adhesive. Something like Fixomull Stretch or Leukotape P will definitely stay on. Others aren't so water resistent, like KinesioTex tape.
      ▶ Secondly, taping isn't necessarily the best way to prevent blisters for these reasons: blisterprevention.com.au/blister-prevention-taping-techniques/.
      ▶ And finally, I'd use a combination of the following stretegies to prevent blisters across the ball of the foot - read this blisterprevention.com.au/blister-on-bottom-of-foot/
