Can anyone help me find a pair of sandals or flip flops that are really springy and good for your feet but not actually ugly as sin?

PLease? I have 2 problems - fallen arch thing on foot so I usually have to wear insole / supportive shoe
now have pelvic problem so unless shoe very springy it hurts like buggery every time foot hits pavement

I am down to one pair of Ecco trainers which are comfortable but it is getting HOT
need shoes for next 2 months which I can wear with a skirt ideally
not too pricey as only needed short term (baby due in July after which pelvis should be ok)
and not those kind of ugly walking sandals that I know some people do wear with skirts but I will not

i have hush puppies sometimes, have got some flat pumps currently. but i destroy flimsy shoes. they are too solid for your needs.

once had something super from debenhams, easy step i think.

Dh has merrell's. A small noise of joy comes out of his nose when he puts them on.

franny have a look at amazon, they have some surprisingly nice shoes and the more sensible ones are often reduced.

turquoise and reduced but i think not possible to leave the house in them.

Tatterdemalion · 05/05/2008 20:15

They probably are (merrells & expensive)

Dh bought his in canada on our honey moon (7 years ago now) and they are still going strong (as is the nose noise)
