This is a simple thing yet often over looked little tidbit.
A lot of people have a tendency to buy a brand new pair of shoes right before they go off on their backpackin' extravagana, but forget to break them in.
Make sure that you have broken-in your pair of shoes a few weeks before you head off on your journey! This way your shoes will feel a lot more comfortable. Otherwise, your feet will be hating life!
UNbroken-in shoes = dismal feet!
Peace out!

my first trip out of the country was to amsterdam. i had just bought a new pair of hiking/walking boots and hadn't worn them until i got there. needless to say i almost wore off a toe in the red light district alone.
so amen to the advice tdpdawg

I bought a pair of Dansk clog/shoes not long before a trip, and I lucked out because they aren't the kind of shoes you break in. Actually, I completely recommend them, 110%. Plus, if youre from the U.S., these shoes make you look less touristy.
