Why is it that when your socks get wet, e.g. running in the rain, you tend to get blisters, which are caused by increased friction, right? More generally why is water in some cases act as a lubricant (e.g. trying to stop your car on a wet road) and in other case an anti-lube (e.g. wetting your thumb in order to better thumb thru some papers (or some money). |

It softens your skin, so it gets irritated more easily. |

Water changes the texture of absorbant materials such as cotton or paper. |

moisture in small amounts increases friction. if you had a constant flow of enough water it might prevent blisters, but there's no way you could do that inside a shoe. think tile saws here. |
