Lots of Walking -->Sore Feet Remedy

That sounds like a great idea, thanks , I'll try it!

I've also had success using this technique with Aspercreme, but don't use if you are allergic or can't have aspirin because of other meds. Also, switching between two pairs of shoes will help with achy feet.

I find wearing Thorlo socks and proper shoes is the only real remedy short of walking alot less. They cost about $11 per pair but worth every penny so as to not get blisters and fatigued feet. I never thought I would pay this much for socks but it works.
I do not work for Thorlo.

If your feet are also slightly swollen, try sleeping with them elevated (old army trick).

Hey, that might just be worth using some of my 3oz space for :) Thanks for the great tip. :D

Socks made for diabetics are more comfortable than athletic socks. I've been wearing MediPeds that I bought at Target. They are soft and non-binding. I've seen similar, more expensive, diabetic socks in pharmacies. After a long day on my feet wearing my "sensible" shoes, I switch to sandals. This rests my feet and gives them a chance to dry out.

Ive been using the Patagonia-brand hiking socks (med-weight) for my trips - hiking in Norway and the Alps and locally in SoCal... they are all merino wool, have various knits in special areas to whick moisture - and stay formed to your foot (almost like a contour weave). They are between 17-19$ each - but a couple pairs are fine. Id gladly pay a few dollar for top performance and comfort. Also - an old hiker once told me always use the same pair of socks 2-3 days in a row then air dry at nite. (But - Id say slip on a fresh pair if you go out that night - then resume the previous pair the next day!) 3 pairs is all you need then!

At the end of the day, I stretch. One that really helps sore feet is laying on your back with one or both legs straight up and move your feet in circles to get the blood flowing.

For blisters, anti-perspirant works well. Blisters come from friction, which gets bad after your socks get wet from sweat. Anti-perspirant on your feet keeps your socks dry and saves your feet.
