It’s seasonably warm in the Bay Area this fall and sandal wearing still abounds. Thanksgiving week someone walked into my office wearing sandals, whose strap was rubbing and irritating the top of her big toe. In spite of her visit being related to something entirely different, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to correct her strangulating strap. If you suffer from this, here’s a surefire fix. Simply unbuckle the offending strap, and secure a 1/8″ thick square of Wiley’s Felt Remedy to the strap underside. A quick re-buckle and problem solved! This trick also works for Mary Jane staps (flats or heels) as well.
