Please help me find summer shoes for walking round disney. I hate trainers and want nice sandals.

[pud1]

I am trying to find shoes for 2 weeks in Disney.

I suffer with a burning in the balls of my feet that I have been told is Plantar fasciitis. I don't actually think it is but that's a whole other thread. This has left me in shoe hell. I LOVE heels but they are totally out of bounds. I hate trainers. I have seen Skechers mention on these type of threads but I don't like them either.

I think I am trying to find the impossible. I want a nice pair of summer sandals that are very comfy and cushioned.

Please help

fugly is the new black, i hear

I saw some in a landsend catalogue that had a memory foam type sole. Similar to the Skechers type but I preferred how they looked.

Have you looked at M&S footglove sandals. Some are OK looking and the prices aren't quite so eye watering as elsewhere.

[mimiasovitch]

here.
They have these too with a foam footbed. You'll really want something comfortable - I ended up in trainers. In public. Not at the gym. This was a big deal!

How about saltwater sandals?

[SwimmingMom]

Try 'hotter' brand shoes/sandals. They are the comfiest your money can buy.

I have severe foot problems & I spend a lot on getting comfy footwear (not too worried about how they look as am past the fashion stop at the age of 35 already!)

[FannyFifer]

Birkies are great for a lot of foot problems.

How about Crocs, v comfy for walking around all day. [runs]

[Chocotrekkie]

If it is plantar then fit flops were the only ones I could wear with comfort..

[rootypig]

Saltwater Saltwater Saltwater. They are the most comfortable things you will ever put on your feet. And flattering. They'll cost you about £40 here but less than $40 in the US. Oh, and they're designed to be amphibious (hence the name) so perfect for water park and wet rides.

Flip flops? thongs. I lived in them in Oz. Very comfortable.

Gabor sandals are amazing. I got a pair last year for tramping around cobble streets on holiday and it's like walking on puffy marshmallow. I now own 3 pairs different styles. these are next on my list.

[buttercrumble]

How about these

[Blueuggboots]

teva is a very good make and comfy

[somuchtosortout]

Crocs do a nice range and they are great for me (also plantar fascitis).mine have a low wedge heel with a cr
oss cross pattern.

[somuchtosortout]

Cross cross

[somuchtosortout]

Argh! Criss-cross! Bloody phone!

[wentshopping]

I live in the US so I see plenty of people living in trainers all the time - and this is pretty much what all Americans wear around Disney.
I got these last year and they are the most comfortable sandals ever - straight out of the box. I wore them all last week in Disney too.
ecco sandals

[Nocomet]

Those last very simple very exoensive merrell look lovely.

I stomped round Disney in some old Clarks sunseekers? That shape but velcro ajustments on the front too.

DDs wore there crocs.

My sister swears by hotter sandals and has had some relatively tasteful black ones.

[pud1]

Thanks for the replies

I like the Gabor ones but not sure my poor feet will cope with a wedge.

I am trying to find saltwater but can only find kids

[wentshopping]

I have a pair of the Merrells that Blue mentions, and I find that they do get a bit sweaty after a while.
Disclaimer: I live in a hot part of the US, so wear a lot of sandals with bare feet.
Another vote for Gabor; also Dansko do sandals if you like a clog-like style

[Nocomet]

I really want to try these on

I've had very comfy ecco lace up boots, but their shoes tend to be too wide

[SolomanDaisy]

Fitflops actually cured my plantar fasciitis, but they may not be the look you want.

[fitflopqueen]

2nd flipflops, very cushioned and supportive, never had any blisters from toe posts and can walk all day in them
