Guest guest Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 Hello all, Like most CMT patients, I have alot of foot pain when walking without shoes. I only go without shoes around the house, but since my kitchen and dining room are not carpeted I experience foot pain when walking in those areas. I think properly fitting houseshoes would alleviate my problem. I have tried numerous houseshoes, but I can't wear ones that don't have a back (they just fall off). And like most shoes I've seen, houseshoes under size 6 1/2 are very hard to find. So what I'm hoping to find is some type of houseshoe or even mocassin-type shoe that laces up (or even uses velcro) and is very padded (preferably without a hard sole). I am looking for something that basically just provides alot of thick soft padding that will stay on my foot for me to wear around they house. Does anyone know of any type of shoes that may fit this description? I have heard about Uggs (mentioned in this forum), but I haven't been able to find any that they make in my size (about 5 1/2 to 6 1/2). I have even thought about a custom made shoe made out of sheepskin or some sort of durable thick padding. I don't think it would be that hard to make (if the shoe person has the big sewing machine) because mainly I am concerned with the padding and fit. I wouldn't be too concerned with appearance. Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas? Any thoughts on this subject are greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
