If you love Birkenstock what else do you wear.

[Kaz2200]

I think I have Mortons Neuroma, the only shoes I can wear are Birkenstock and Sketchers go walk. I bought some Sketchers trainers but they are not as comfy as the go walk. I would love some stylish trainers does anyone have any suggestions.

Birkenstock do closed shoes boots and trainers if you like their in sole

Still wearing burkies, but inside only. I looked at Birkenstock boots, they were nice but pricey. They were £159 buying directly from Germany but £209 buys by from Uk.

They look a bit pricey would like something between a sandal and a boot.

I have oddly shaped feet and birkenstocks are the most comfortable for me. I've had some success with Clarks and Heavenly Feet boots but I haven't found anything really good to fill the gap between sandals and boots.
I usually get something converse-like in a wide fit to see me through.
I'd love to try birkenstock boots or shoes but don't have the budget.

Love my birkies too!
There is a New Zealand company called Allbirds. They make sneakers and a flatter style called loafers made of merino wool. They are extremely comfy and washable. Come in lots cool colours.
They don’t ship to UK but ship to US ( check website). You could get a US mailing address from one of those forwarding companies.

I had surgery for my Morton's neuroma but both before and after Fitflops were the only thing I could comfortably walk in (when it was too cold for Birkenstocks) They do trainers and boots. I lived in the boots all winter.

Try fit flop- have been converted from Skechers

I had some lovely fitflop boots a couple of years ago but they crippled the ball of one foot I had to sell them on. I would love some coverse type but again they hurt. I'm so sick of trying on shoes, them being really comfy bit after wearing for and hour I cannot wear them. Shoes and bras, the bane of my life.

Have you got orthotics for your neuroma? I found sizing up and using the orthotics was quite good in trainers or wide flat boots. For me nothing really helped much apart from having the thing removed.

No I'm only self diagnosed, but it is a burning pain in the ball of my foot, Birkenstock and Go walk don't hurt at all, ugg boots are OK too. Has anyone tried Reiker or Vionics?

Yes I've got some vionics and they are expensive but nice. TO be honest the orthotics I got from the podiatrist are better than the vionic inbuilt ones.

Go to GP and they will refer you to podiatry. Might take ages but worth it.

Might be plantar fasciitis? I've got this, and don't really have anything that helps - my Birkies probably make it worse. I actually think my Sam Edelman Petty boots are the best thing, probably as has a very small heel. I generally wear trainers and find ones designed for running rather than fashion are better too.

I got a pair of Birkenstock boots from TKMaxx for £50 during Oct half term last year, so it worth checking TKMaxx out. At the time they had loads

Thanks I'll have a look in tk max

Of all my shoes the ones with the widest footbed are red or dead. Don't know if all their styles are like this but worth a try. Also they required no breaking in

Vans
DMs
Rocket dog

I dont have a wide foot, it's more the style I think, I've tried vans, comfy initially bit within an hour they hurt. Not tried DMs or Rockehet Dog so may give them a try.

I have a few Vionics but the really nice ones went back (Josie?) as they were uncomfortable. I was so disappointed.

Clark's, Hotter, spring to mind - we have a great shop that sells these, Birkenstock's and more, specialist fitters too with various insoles. I also wear hiking shoes and boots, Salomon, Merrells currently.

I had the steroid injection for MN, was sceptical beforehand but it worked brilliantly. Go to the GP and get a diagnosis. I may have been lucky but for me it was 4 weeks from the initial GP consultation to the injection, and three days after that I was walking normally again. That was 6 years ago, no trouble since.
