Comfortable Shoes – Too much to ask?
I have suffered so much over the years, totally unable to find a pair of decent shoes that don’t make my feet ache, and don’t rub my feet to shreds.
There are some solutions like using gel pads or special foam you can cut to size. But gel pads never stay in the same place, and foam can often make the problem worse or at least come loose and leave you with glue all over your lovely shoes.
I’m getting really fed up. The more I see stupid shoes all over the place, ones you can see will obviously rub the back of your heel to the bone, the angrier I get.
It’s so much worse in summer. A few months ago I bought some Crocs. Yes, real Crocs. I’d had enough, and there are some decent styles out there like Crocs Olivia which are quite feminine and dainty. I thought I’d cracked it, honestly. They weren’t rubbing my feet at all, and I loved how light they were. What could possibly go wrong? Well, if you’ve ever worn Crocs, I don’t think you can deny that they make your feet sweat, A LOT. No amount of holes will cure that, and I think it’s a con to make you believe the little holes will solve all your problems. So after 5 mins of walking, it turns into ‘squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak’. Then all of a sudden the backslings decided not to fit around the back of my feet anymore, so I couldn’t walk properly.
Terrible. Rip off shoes I call them. Promising, but utterly faulted.
So I’m back to square one. If anyone knows of a nice looking pair of shoes that I can walk LOTS in, please let me know.
