    I bought a pair of sandals earlier this summer that I only appear able to wear with socks. While the look is de rigueur at the moment, one doesn’t always want to bust it out—at a wedding, say—just to avoid blisters from too-stiff leather or backs that rub. After a Sunday of limping in said sandals, I was happy to find a can of Flexitol’s Blistop ($10, at Zellers) on my desk this morning. I immediately whipped off my shoes (and coral socks) and gave the tops of my toes a few spritzes of the spray, which dries perfectly clear. (There is a slight sheen, but it’s not noticeable.)

    Verdict:
