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?

[FrannyandZooey]

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

Clarks aren't the sexiest shoes but they are damn comfy

Fit Flops on victoria health

I remember complimenting you on your choice of sandal, Cali, particularly your colour choice.

I'm glad you are satisfied with them!

They are the dog's, seriously.

they're also fab if you fancy cooling down your feet by dipping them in a cool spring or pool.

ahhhh.

I got some shoes, how do I do that link to the clarks site as the address just goes to the home page?

Anyone said fitflops yet ?? The flip flop version of MBTs ?? I want some of them !

And the Crocs flip flops are fabulous springy !

well they are these ones but in red suede

very sproingy and I think look pretty

My favourite ones. I've just bought a pair in black. Look well and very,very comfy.

look I found the red suede pic
I think they are lovely

What about Doc Martens sandals? (haven't read thread btw)
(also, I am the type who wears walking sandals with anything )

no TooT look I found some
look look look look they are red and pretty

(doc martens destroy my feet)

when you look young and cute TooT you can wear walking sandals with a skirt
I look like my mother if I do it

I'm not young and cute, I just NEED comfortable feet

these are comfortable
well fairly

"Clarks unique 'Active Air' system provides exceptional underfoot comfort. It consists of a network of air channels which;
*allow air to circulate with every step
*absorbs shock impact as the heel strikes the ground
*gives energy return at the end of every step"

you see? energy return. Yes indeed.

They certainly do sound efficient

yes indeed
a network of air channels

Another vote for the crocs flip flops - or Mary Janes. I have them both in a very severe black - do not look like crocs in a million years. The MaryJanes are a sort of sueded finish, so don't even look rubbery/plasticky. Several quite fashionable people of my acquaintence have asked me about them and I have just said airily - oh they are new, I got them in Tokyo recently (true) and they have swooned at my unusual coolness.

They do not look like old lady shoes either, which some of the above are straying worryingly into.

NO NO I HAVE BOUGHT SOME NOW
