Choosing the Right Shoes
If your toes cramp up from time to time, you may be irritating a nerve underneath your foot. You are basically causing the bones in your toes to be squeezed up against the thin nerve that runs in between them.
Make sure to wear shoes that are roomier at the toe box (the region in the shoe that houses your toes). Wearing shoes with a narrow toe box should be avoided and/or minimized.
