My feet hurt :)

Disagree. I could go to every shoe store in Temecula and find no possible shoe I will wear. Barefoot compatible shoes are a special online prod. Today. Plus everything’s returnable. Intrigued by http://www.lemsshoes.com

Aldo tune footwear looks promising.

Foot doesn’t look too mashed together.

I tried to post pics of my feet but file too big..

[scaredyclassic]

Maybe we are evolving not to walk?

I feel sympathy for those feet.

What does the foot look like and feel like when you try to spread toes by yourself without a,toe spreader?

[scaredyclassic]

I wonder if you wore barefoot shoes or sandals whether you could heal yourself?

LOL. I love it.

Unfortunately I have way too much experience in this area. I highly recommend seeing a board-certified foot/ankle orthopedist instead of (or at least in addition to) a podiatrist.

Lots of good info on this board http://www.healthboards.com/boards/foot-ankle-problems/

Looks like pedal to the metal syndrome 😉

[quote=scaredyclassic]Foot comfort is my thing. Seriously.

Shoes are evil. Even normal dress or running shoes cramp feet.

Bad!

You need room to spread out.

Google barefoot philosophy to understand the problem of shoes.

I swear by http://www.sanuk.com

I stopped wearing regular dress shoes many years ago in favor of very wide footwear.

Birkenstock shoes can work for work. Also primal professional shoes. Or upscale sanuk.

Shoes are the enemy. They are rounded. Feet should be wide at toes with big toe spread for ground grippage.

After sleep and poop, feet are my 3rd highest concern.[/quote]

Think I’d rate my concerns food, sleep, eyes, with sex coming a close 4th.

I protect my eyes very very carefully.

Feet are important too though. I too always go with extra wide shoes with plenty of toe room. Even to work, I wear shoes as close to slippers as I can get away with (leather on the outside, soft on the inside, no shoe strings, loose fit).

I also really like Ecco shoes. There is one Ecco style I am so enamored with I have several new pair in storage so I have enough to last me the rest of my life…don’t have to worry about whether they get discontinued. 🙂

I use to have ecco shoes. There was an old soft leather type that I really liked so much that I bought two pairs. After I finally wore out the first pair and I took out the other pair. However, the first day with them, for whatever reasons, the heels completely fell apart…literally melted and stuck to the ground as I was walking… I guess leaving them in the garage for so many years did something to them. I haven’t been able to find something similar, because they changed their styles. So that’s why I wear tennis shoes most of the time….

Thank goodness I’m a software geek and don’t need to wear a suit most of the time. I don’t understand how some women manage to wear high heels most the time. It looks really uncomfortable…

Yikes thanks for the heads-up. My extra pairs are in my closet, but I’ll make sure now not to move them to the garage or attic…

I just checked…ecco doesn’t make my pair anymore either. Glad I loaded up! And yes mine are of a soft leather type that I have never seen anywhere else. Pretty unique.

My wife loooves high heels. Only wears them Fri/Sat nights, but she must have close to 50 pair of 5 inch heels, on top of dozens of other types of shoes, that I’ve built custom display cases for. It’s an addiction that I’ve slowly come around to enjoying myself. 🙂 (seeing them on her feet, not mine!!!)

” first day with them, for whatever reasons, the heels completely fell apart…literally melted and stuck to the ground as I was walking… ”

I have had shoes that did this, Seems they are like peanut butter, they last a long time but have a definite shelf life. the plastic/rubber just deteriorates after a while (they were really nice/expensive shoes too).

Maybe if they are vacuum packed LOL.

But at the same time I have had Costco Sneakers in the garage 10 years and they wear just fine, it a materials thing I guess.

Wish I’d loaded up on Sanuk cruisers. Discontinued. If you love something it will be discontinued
