Am a big fan of fit flops - have lived in them since I bought them and they were the only thing I could wear when swelled up just before I had dd

Look at Rieker and Josef Seibel sandals. I live in them in the summer and on holiday.

i just ordered some scholls out of littlewoods yesterday and some clarks 'unstructured' just arrived can't believe the scholls were too big!! i might ordered them in a smaller size as they are amazingly comfortable.

and look nice too!

Evans shoes/sandals are generally wider fitting and comfy.

My feet have also got wider and longer since having DS it's a nightmare! But I have found and bought some nice summber sandals.

These from Markies are fantastic www.marksandspencer.com/gp/product/B001UL61YW/sr=1-1/qid=1244038377/ref=sr_1_1/279-4444511-3195518?i e=UTF8&node=216171031&m=A2BO0OYVBKIQJM&keywords=&mnSBrand=core&size=9&rh=&page=

Ditto these: www.marksandspencer.com/gp/product/B001P9AF1Y/sr=1-11/qid=1244038426/ref=sr_1_11/280-5232790-1418537 ?ie=UTF8&node=&m=A2BO0OYVBKIQJM&keywords=&mnSBrand=core&size=9&rh=n%3A216171031%2Cp%5F93%3AWide&page =2

I also have two pairs of birkenstocks from this site: www.footshopping.com/main.cfm?MI=6

I have a pair of Papillio Gizeh (toe posts) and a pair of Papillio Arizona (two straps)
I like the Papillio range as they have nice patterns/colours.

I have found that I needed to wear the birkenstocks around the house for a week before they were comfy but the Markies ones I just put on and went for a walk without any soreness, rubbing etc.
