Low Quarter Shoe Advice

[westpoint2023user]

I purchased three pairs of low quarters- Oxford DLATS - to identify the correct fit for me. All of the shoes I purchased experience the same problem: the heel slips. Does anyone have suggestions on ways to fix this problem or avoid/ prevent blisters due to this problem?

Moleskin!

Moleskin!

Agree 1000%. And it won’t be the only time it comes in handy in your service career.

Because I couldn’t get half sizes I had the same problem and opted for the larger pair. I found some of those heel pads for dress shoes and then put a moleskin over it. Helps prevent most slipping and the moleskin is a lot better than the grippy texture on the pad, which caused blisters

I don’t know if it’s too late for you to get one, but if you look at tongue cushions on Amazon one of those fixed a lot of slipping in mine.
