For large feet that cannot handle heels. I have tendonitis in both feet but worse in my left foot. I can't wear confining shoes or anything with a heel. If I try I am crippled within an hour .

I bought this dress. I need some shoes and a shrug/bolero to go with it. I can handle the shrug but shoes? Please advise. I can't wear my DMs all summer! And I don't think birkies will work.

Not vile, but not right I don't think. Thanks though.

how could they be right(er)? colour, style etc. This is helping me avoid cleaning the bathroom

I'd prefer a darker shade and I don't care too much for the 'comfort' sole IYSWIM. I don't know whether I need to look at sandals of some sort or pretty flip flops or summat like that.

I'm sure I need you more than your bathroom does!

too much heel?

I suspect so sadly.

I think it might be an impossible task

no no

no task is impossible when it comes to shoes

how about these?

is it an everyday shoe you're after or specifically to go with the dress?

oh, xpost!

My "no no" was to you saying impossible task.

I love those gold sandals. Have a much better idea now.

I think they would be too tight across the broadest part of my foot. Honestly I am only totally comfy atm with DMs, running shoes or bare feet.

I need both TBH but the dress is more important as it;s for a wedding.

I totally understand. I'm a red DM woman myself. Or battered converse. I like your gold ones a lot. You didn't need any help, woman!

OOh I did! I would be horrified at myself buying such 'FRIVOLOUS' footwear. I need encouragement.

How about something like this or this?

I have the second ones and they are supremely comfortable.

Or these? or these?

Or maybe I am barking up the wrong tree?

The second ones can be adjusted to the width of your foot- much like a DM

They also come in gold.

Not wrong tree at all. I like the Clarks ones.

Thanks.
