comfortable shoes? - Foot Problems Message Board

Do you know of any shoes that are comfortable plus supportive for problem feet? I do wear birkenstocks but they are not helping much. Any other suggestions?

My podiatrist recommended Rockport and Easy Spirit.

Try to find a shoe which supports the ankle but which does not impede or 'squash' the foot. There are many specialist footwear companies who will tailor each shoe individualy. Kickers for example will do one in green and the other one red.

I frequently wear Birkenstocks too. But my favorite is "Josef Seibel" brand shoes. Make sure that whatever shoes you buy, it has adequate arch support.
