Hello,
I would like to ask the 'Fusion Experts' out there for any recommendations on brands of shoes to wear after big toe fusions.
Have any of you tried Earth shoes? They're supossed to give good support (which I will still need). I'm looking for something that will not cause more pain, be supportive... and if they can actually be cute, well, that would be a miracle!
I think Birkenstocks may still work, and I find for athletic shoes either the Brooks or Saucony 'stability' shoes work well... at least so far.
For some reason I thought that after my fusions healed I would be able to wear 'normal' shoes again... but I don't think that will ever happen! (Man, was I dreaming or what?! :rolleyes: )
Thanks in advance,
~Heather
