How can I not get feet blisters when playing basketball?

I find it strange that whenever a play basketball I get these blisters on the part of the soils before the thumb, where feet support the most. One on each foot, the size of a bottle cap. I dont know anyone else having this problem and it happens everytime I play, after having done so for some time (+25 mins)



What can I do to stop this from happening?How can I not get feet blisters when playing basketball?
There are a couple of things you can do:



1) Get powder for your shoes that makes the shoes more "breathable". I have used something like this and it helps A LOT. You can get this powder from any pharmacy store or sports stores.



2) Your shoes are not right for you. Someone said to where tighter shoes but I have noticed, the tighter my shoes were, the more blisters I would get. So, try to find some shoes you are comfortable in.



When the blisters are dealt with by using the powder and maybe new shoes, you have more time to focus on getting better at basketball.How can I not get feet blisters when playing basketball?
Try wearing a very thin pair of socks under your regular socks. That way, it's the two pairs of socks 'rubing' each other and not just you.



Make certain you always wear cotton socks, or at least cotton rich socks, that can help a lot.How can I not get feet blisters when playing basketball?
Wear thick cotton socks to absorb your sweat and try to wear tighter sneakers or lace them up tighter to reduce the foot rubbing the inside of the shoe.
