Mike, blisters on the toes can also be caused from gripping the ground with your toes. I do this sometimes and I have to consciously think about relaxing the toes.
Ok I'm gonna ask- bash at will I can take it

Ive been working on that too!! two runs now one 2.5 with some trail and no blisters, then 3.6 today and so far not missing skin.
I think this is what I was doing when I relax my feet completely it seems to help a lot!
I will have to try this. I am a new bf runner and thought the blister on my middle toes was just normal. I know that I grip with my toes, and thought that was what I was supposed to do. This is why I read this forum.
Personally i havent had any problems in running both with bf, in min shoes, and in 'traditional' shoes all at the same time.
I run seriously high millage and simply am not willing to reduce my millage as i transition to lighter and more minimal shoes. It also has to be said that i havent experienced any injuries running in 'traditional' shoes... or BF & Min either.
I guess some points that need to be kept in mind is that mixing may slow the transition down. Using Min shoes may also encourage you to progress the distance out too far too soon for what your foot can currently handle...
