your mission, should you choose to accept it.
Is to help me find some sandals (already have some Birkies) that have good arch and heel support.

and are vaguely trendy!
thank you

there is another thread about these shoes, you'll probably hate them but here goes, here

what about fly london? i've just bought a pair (slightly different style) and they are really comfy. the heel looks high, but as it's a wedge, it's deceptive and your foot lays quite flat.

ha ha just been on the Art shoe thread! They certainly divide opinion.

They're ok, but not sure how much arch support they'd give.
I really like the Fly sandals. Thank you

i tried the fly london ones on in john lewis then ordered online as it was cheaper. very comfy, the leather is really soft.

fit flops?

Are the Reebok new flip flops arch friendly? The ones that are supposed to be a work out for your bum & thighs?? I'll watch this as I'm having achilles problems, so need something supportive.

yes, I am definatlely leaning towards the fit flops. Thanks for all your suggestions lucykate

am going to do a bit of research on the reebok ones squilly, I didn't know they did fit flop type shoes.

i tried on a pair of fit flops in john lewis today (all in the name of research ), they were supportive, very comfy, bouncy to walk on too. bit wide for my feet, so slid off when walking, but can see why they are popular.
