Achilles Tendon pain

[Hofhunter]

Anyone experience Achilles tendon pain while hunting with your boots? See if anyone out there has any helpful tips or how they dealt with the issue. It feels fine with normal day walking/working. But once I put my hunting boots on and start walking it starts to hurt.

Thanks for any tips/help.

How different are your boots from normal shoes that don’t cause pain? If they are different enough to cause you to have a different gait and put more strain on your calves it could cause pain. If you must use those boots spend a fair amount of time stretching your calves and midsole in the morning and then throughout the day. Trying a different lacing pattern could help as well.
