Do you suffer from blisters from your running shoes? That may be due to the way you tie your laces. We have a trick!
The method is called the heel lock. When tying your running shoes, you use the extra hole at the top of your shoe.

Thread your laces through the small hole on their own side. Pull the lace through until you have a loop. Then cross your laces and pull the ends through the loop on the other side. Pull the laces down until the loops are gone. Then tie your laces as you normally would.
Your heel is much more stable in your shoe, so there is less friction. You reduce the risk of blisters on your heels and toes.
Watch how to tie your laces in this way in the video below.
