Should I be wearing socks with the Nike Hyperfeel?
I bought a pair of Nike Hyperfeel shoes and they are amazing to run in, but I now have huge blisters on my both of my ankles and a small one on the ball of my left foot.

I got the impression that the point of these shoes was that you didn't need socks, am I wrong should I have worn socks?

The irritating thing is I think the blisters are from the periods I was walking between intervals rather than when I was running in the shoes as I toe strike rather than heel strike and the blisters only hurt when I was walking.

This isn't my first pair of minimalist shoes I previously had a pair of Kinvara 4s but I wore socks with them.

The Nike Hyperfeel Shoes are intended to offer a light, barefoot feel. However, if they are causing blisters for the user then it would be advised to use a low no-show sock with them to prevent the blisters.

If you’re looking for a completely unique barefoot feel
experience check out the Nike Free 1.0 Cross Bionic

Here is a newer shoe that may fill your need.
