Guest guest Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 THANK YOU!! I recently bought a very ugly pair of tennis shoes just because they were the only pair I could find that actually felt good. They look like an ugly cleat style LOL but they are ok I guess Haha. Has anyone been to or heard of " The Good Feet Store " ? They have one about 1 1/2hr from me but I've yet to get over there. Not sure if that's a nation wide chain or what though. If so, any luck? > I went to Mall of America yesterday, determined to find decent- > looking, comfortable shoes for work.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Birkenstock has everything from sandals to full shoes and boots, as well as a walking shoe. They're expensive, but perfect for foot problems. ----- Original Message ----- From: snowdrift52003 Rheumatoid Arthritis Sent: Wednesday, September 08, 2004 8:29 AM Subject: Shoes for bad feet I went to Mall of America yesterday, determined to find decent-looking, comfortable shoes for work.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 I know they do, and that's the only thing I dislike about them. Maybe I'll check out the Monroes.... ----- Original Message ----- From: snowdrift52003 Rheumatoid Arthritis Sent: Wednesday, September 08, 2004 5:26 PM Subject: Re: Shoes for bad feet > Birkenstock has everything from sandals to full shoes and boots, as well as a walking shoe.

They're expensive, but perfect for foot problems. There is an outrageous new line of shoes with huge, thick springs (coils) underneath the heels.. They are sold at podiatrists for arthritis patients... YES, they look rediculous at first! But we are seeing more and more people wearing them. They run about $125. I tried them on and it felt so good to have a spring in my step! Boooiiinnnnngggg! But don't know if I can stand the stares, just yet. Pris Does your pig need a brush-up in manners or obedience?

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 I got some shoes from Footsmart but found Merrell's slip ons to be more comfortable. They are surely not dressy but comfortable and okay with pants. The top is a soft mesh and flexible and I am still looking around. Glad to have all these good ideas, gang.
