The first pair are much nicer.

The second look a bit orthopaedic...

Second pair.

Second pair.

Eesha · 22/04/2019 08:59

Thanks people, I always seem to have reasonably nice clothes but not very nice shoes so really want to make a change!

Definitely second.

I think it would depend what you are wearing. First with a dress, second with trousers or a jumpsuit. Personally I prefer the first. The sole of number 2 is a teeny bit orthopaedic innersole. I would also be wary of that pale colour on my pale skin. Would work better once I have a suntan or on darker skin tones.

Second pair as I'd be ever sliping out of the first pair. But that's me and my small feet I need something to holed shoes on them or they just don't stay.

Eustasiavye · 22/04/2019 11:04

Depends if you can keep the first pair on.
If not then the second pair.

Eesha · 22/04/2019 11:12

@WildCherryBlossom I'm very dark so more inclined towards the second pair at present. Lots of returning to be done me thinks!

I wouldn't wear either but second are better. First ones are a bit frumpy for me. I'm 50.

GemmeFatale · 22/04/2019 18:56

They both lean ‘older lady’ to my eye.

I know you want a comfortable, everyday option but I think you can do better

Eesha · 22/04/2019 20:55

Arghhh, any ideas for something better? I wore fitflops last year which were great but broke.

WildCherryBlossom · 22/04/2019 20:57

I think either one could work well on dark skin. Have you tried them on to see which you enjoy wearing most. There is a lot to be said for happy feet!

Pinkyyy · 22/04/2019 21:00

What's your budget OP? Out of the two I'd choose the second pair, but I think you can find much nicer.

wigglypiggly · 22/04/2019 21:04

how old are you? they are a bit frumpy if you don't mind me saying.

Eesha · 22/04/2019 21:06

I'm 42, budget is approx 100, I tend to like brighter colours. I like low wedge heels or sandals with comfy padding rather than too thin which hurts my feet.

OP posts:
Charley50 · 22/04/2019 21:07

I've seen much nicer sandals.

Eesha · 22/04/2019 21:17

@wigglypiggly I like those colours but when the base is that flat, I feel like my feet end up rubbing and burning too much
