Need comfortable boots - arthritis

6 replies

Hi. I've got a few medical issues (arthritis, sciatica and bunions) that mean it's really difficult to buy shoes and boots. I found a pair of elastic shoes from Amazon which were great but now it's getting cold and wet they aren't suitable anymore. I usually buy a pair of leather boots that seem ok at the start but then wear out really quickly or go 'cold' as in literally can't keep any warmth and my feet are permanently cold and ache. Does anyone have any recommendations for boot or shoe companies who are know for making comfortable boots? I'd love something a bit stylish, but really quality and comfort have to be the priority. Thanks.

Fitflop boots! Pricey but last for years. I had the full length leather ones and they saw me through many kids football seasons over winter. Jyst invested in the scandi ankle boots. Soo comfy.

I like Vivo Barefoot. They are really wide round the toe box and really soft. But the soles are thin so they might not keep your feet warm enough

Hotter whisper boots. I have arthritis, flat feet and bunions. They are wonderful, light, sturdy and last for years. They are perhaps not as stylish as you want, but there are a good selection. I prefer comfort and they are great with jeans or trousers.
