Have you tried a new pair of USA made danners.  I have never had a blister from them and they are super comfy.  If you have a pair no that work for you why not try a new pair of get the ones you have resoled.

I have been thinking about a pair of ten inch danners for back up. I once said I wouldn't buy another pair because they squeaked but I may have to eat my words . my old danners I pulled out didn't hurt my feet just poor traction. :tup:

Glad to hear you have a solution you are working on. If the worst happens and you start to develop a blister, I recommend using donut-shaped, spongy corn pads from Dr. Scholls. Place the blister in the donut-hole. Might take 2 pads to raise the sock off the skin. Use an alcohol wipe to clean your skin prior to application to aid in sticking. Then tape (duct or lucko) over the pad and plenty of overage to aid in sticking.

This combo, along with good lacing technique to lock in the heel, has worked for several people I've applied it to while hiking or hunting with them. (I don't have the blister issue, personally.)

I swung into work and more tonight to look for a logger boot for a option I tried every boot on danner , Irish setter, Georgia . The Georgia 400 gram comfort fit loggers where amazing ,high heel fit was real nice out of the box. I'm gonna wear the crap outta these things in hopes to have a viable back up . If nothing else I will have a good winter work boot . They guaranteed  water proof so we will test that one .
