When you're facing a long trekking or hiking route, your preparation shouldn't start with your backpack… but with your feet. Poor foot care can lead to anything from simple discomfort to blisters, fatigue, or injuries. At Oriocx, we know your feet are your most important tool in the mountains. That's why we teach you how to prepare them before, during, and after every adventure.

🦶 Before the route: smart preparation

- Hydration and skin care: Keep your skin well hydrated days before to avoid dryness or cracking.
- Proper nail trimming: Always straight and without leaving sharp points to avoid chafing or black nails.
- Technical socks: Forget cotton ones. Use socks made of technical fibers that prevent moisture and chafing.
- Footwear choice: Use trekking boots with good support, quality sole and breathable materials such as Oriocx boots.

🥾 During the route: constant prevention

- Pay attention to sweat: Change your socks if you notice dampness. Constant sweating promotes blisters.
- Shoe fit: Not too loose, not too tight. Check the laces during the first few kilometers.
- Technical stops: Take advantage of breaks to check your feet, ventilate or readjust socks.
- Use of anti-friction powders or petroleum jelly on sensitive areas such as heels or toes.

🧼 After the activity: recovery and care

- Cleaning with warm water: Removes dust, sweat and accumulated dirt.
- Check for blisters or chafing: If they appear, disinfect and protect with appropriate dressings.
- Massage and stretching: Promotes circulation and prevents muscle stiffness.
- Let your feet breathe: Wear wide, cool shoes after your hike to help them recover.
