Hi, I'm on my feet 8 hours a day and by the time I get home, I'm hobbling around. My feet, at that point, are killing me. Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations on comfortable, supportive shoes...what brands and where to get them?
Thank you so much for your help.
You can email me at Dreamer44144@aol.com

Hi ! I have had problems getting comfortable shoes for my feet which are wide and I have a high instep (the part where you ankle goes to the foot). In the past 5 years or so a bone spur and arthritis on my big right toe have made having shoes that are comfortable and fit right a must. 2 shoes I would try are "Naturalizer" (you may have to order them online) or "SAS" brand I've gotten in the shoe store. You might want to have your fee checked out by a podiatrist if they hurt so much after a day of work. Orthotics are really expensive but also may help the tiredness in your foot. Please let me know if these suggestions help.

The previous reply provided you with some good suggestions. You can try shoes and/or orthotics. The previous reply was discussing the fact that custom orthotics can be a little costly. I would recommend that you look at the Conform or Anti-Shox orthotics which are available at our web site. We also carry many different styles of shoes which can help. However, you should also make an appointment with a podiatrist if problem persists or worsens.
