Summer shoes for bad feet

12 replies

StarExpat · 12/04/2010 21:00

I've never posted in style and beauty before. .
I have horrible toes. The rest of my feet are absolutely fine. I'm 5ft 2 1/2" and 112 lbs, size 8 (usually) or "small". I don't really like pointy heels all that much (but maybe I should try them?).
I wish I could wear flip flops, but my toes are very very ugly. A pedicure won't do it. My big toe is oddly shaped, one of my middle toes has a weird bump on it and my pinkie toes are weird looking, too. Other than the toes, feet look normal. I know I sound like an ugly troll from this description... well, not a troll in the MN sense of the word...
Anyone else in this boat?
Any ideas for lovely summer shoes - casual and maybe slightly more formal, that cover toes?
Thanks in advance!!

You mean a little hole at the frong, tethersend? I could try that.
I'm so not "in the know" in the shoe world. I have 2 pair of boots for winter, trainers, clogs and I used to have some mary jane type shoes but they are dead now. I feel like part of my female genetics are missing!

These are extremely comfortable...

I have a similar problem but am also tall so don't want heels. I was thinking of these

we need to see HOW odd they are
take a pic

Could also look at flip flops with a big distracting jewel/fake flower type decoration that covers your toes a bit and keeps the eye off them?

Bargain

Thank you for all of the suggestions!

MrsShu I cannot post a pic of my toes. Sorry, I'm too . I wear socks nearly all the time. Even to bed... I usually try to get away with it at other times, too

I wore socks while giving birth!
