Re: Comfy shoes??? - Kristy

[Guest guest]

Hi Kristy

I'll look into them - I had them years ago and I didn't know you had to break

them in LOL. I have to look for something that I can wear to work also.

Although I can go casual, I can't go too casual.

Thank you much!

Some of the sandal designs that Birkenstock has is about the same

price as the Crocs Beach style shoe around $30.

It takes a few weeks like it can with Orthotic inserts prescribed by a

Podiatrist (still trying to break mine in but almost there).

Birkenstock also has some designs that are related to the

workplace that may be of help to you too besides the sandals.

Go to: http://www.birkenstock.com

There's also a company that also does Birkenstocks called

Birkenstock Express which is: http://www.birkenstockexpress.com

where you can see the products they have.

Do you have cable? I'll explain later why I ask.

And yep, I remember that it took some time for me to break my

Birkenstocks in. I was talking to my Pain Management doctor

about them on one of my last visits and she said she tried them

but got irritated because they were so hard and had to explain

to her that you had to keep wearing them for a bit til it

started to take on the shape of your foot.

My current pair of Birkenstock sandals is about 15 years old and

I still wear them on occasion. They were of big help to me when

I sprained the 4th toe on my left foot in 2004. I need to get

them repaired around part of the top layer of the heel because

it's coming loose but otherwise no wear. I still eventually

want to get another pair of Birkenstock sandals.

Birkenstock also makes a lift if you need help in that area if a

shortened leg is an issue.

Hi Kristy - I have cable. And i went and looked and OF COURSE all the ones I

like are over $100 (even at the express site)! LOL I like the idea of the soft

ones. Those are expensive. And I'd have to have a clog type to wear to work.

The open toe may cut it for summer but not for winter - even in Arizona!
