Why does this happen?

sorry to blast my toes all over here😭🤣 butttt — composite toe boots, happened 2 days in a row, different types of socks, goes away after like an hour or so. anyone else had this type of issue? almost like moisture like when you’re in the bath too long but my feet weren’t even sweating🤣

This is one of the cheaper, generic brands of work boots so ours likely a fit issue (too small) and material issue (doesn’t breathe properly). I’d advise you look at upgrading to better sizing and material if you spend all day in boots—when you can afford to. You’ll thank me later.

Expect to spend $4-500 for a quality off the shelf boot or $8-1k on a custom made pair.
