Sandles that hide your toes but don't look frumpy.

[Jimwenttothedarklands]

My feet are fungal nail infection central. Nice. I've been trying to get rid of it for years but no success. I can't take the tablets because I'm on other meds. I don't wear nail polish.

So I would like sandles that hide my toe nails. I don't mind a bit of latice or subtle cut out shapes but all I can find is fumpy. I can't do ankle straps or those sandles that have buckles going up your leg.

Help!

Palmaria sandals - both the flat and wedge ones hide toenails.

Hm. I like these but I've just seen the bit about no ankle straps. Will post anyway in case it's useful.

Can I ask HeyDolly, do those cover all your toes? I tried the Next ones in last week but my toes still poked out a bit which isn't pleasant.

Jim go to a decent chiropodist and they will get rid of it in no time

blibb- they do. Here are mine - they're SO comfortable

Thanks, one more question if I may. I have wide feet, will they stretch or are they to stiff?
Oh and gunmetal or silver? I need them to go with everything

They stretch, there's some sizing info on the website too as I think the glitter/leopard ones don't stretch as much
I do like the gunmetal! I got grey but my next ones will be leopard and neon

Might have just bought a pair of palmiras from the outlet but!

Oh and I have the fungal nail problem too. I have used lotions, plasters, pills and sandpaper! My gp says there is nothing that can be done as I have had the infections for more than ten years and literally tried everything.

They are fab Olivander almost magical

Vicks vapo rub is supposed to help fungal nails.

OP, try Babyfoot or similar. Those peel layers off your feet. That plus another round of treatment, might help you knock this thing on the head. Coconut oil is also a known antifungal in the tropics, where these infections are rife.

I have some Sam Edelman flatform sandals, they look like Bikenstocks with a bit of a platform. I love them but I can see why some may think they are a bit ugly.

Oh no, those Palmiras are gorgeous! I may need 2 or 3 pairs

Vicks vapo rub as PP said! Magic stuff. Or coconut oil wigh tea tree and lavender but it isn't as good I reckon (DH prone to icky toenails)

See a homeopath for fungal feet... always worth a try when all else fails.. (and no need for anyone to add that homoeopathy is just sugar and water and a waste of money.. you can choose to ignore the advice..)

Another fungal toe person here, and also with plantar fasciitis (nobody's going to invite me to be a foot model anytime soon!) Menorcan sandals are great, especially the wedge ones. The leather is very soft, so they stretch a lot I find- I am really a 7.5-8 but I can get away comfortably with a 7 in Menorcan sandals.

The best IMO are Rias, but Solillas/Palmairas/Avarcas are all good.

I keep forgetting the Vics thing, might give it a go again.

Tried the baby foot things didn’t work. Will try vicks as I am desperate after ten years plus!

Op. I visit a chiropodist for Wilde-Pedique treatment. The chiropodist rebuilds my nails using this technique and they look perfect. For years I hid my crappy toes in trainers all summer. Now I can wear what every I like. It's brilliant. Last year I had a treatment in early summer and another in August. Each treatment cost around £35. I recommend it.

Um well the palmiras really didn't work for me!

Ouch!!

I'm in the same boat with awful nails and just bought my second pair of Palmeiras today. I love them! So comfortable and hide your toes while still letting a bit of air in.

Oh and I'm also using both oregano oil and Vicks on my nails and gradually seeing some improvement after about 6 years of problems (I also cant have the oral meds)
