People with sore feet!
I spend all day on my feet, and my good work shoes were starting to 'go'. Today I couldn't take it anymore and grabbed a pair of dance sneakers off the shelf. They're, well, what they say they are. Sneakers for dancing in.
Holy crap comfortable.
I took these ones:


and now I think I'm going to get Capezio to send some of these for me with the next shipment


I highly recommend them. Highly. But they fit super small, usually a size smaller than street shoes.

1. I love the top siders with rubber soles instead of crepe...
Also, I were a lift in one shoe to even out my tilted body.....

12. I think at one time some had crepe...
Of course I am old and wizened, an old fart in common parlance, but I could be mistaken....

2. Wow. I have a Morton's Neuroma
I wonder if that would help my problem.

10. Finn shoes, and THINK and Danskk are excellent for those morton's
feet. That's all I wear now. Changing to those brands kept me from having surgery and almost eliminated the pain... then I developed arthrosis.

3. Everyone on the planet should have a significant other
who gives foot massages. There's almost nothing more relaxing. And they're pretty high on the sensual scale, too. :7

9. I wasn't rubbing it in
I was fantasizing.

(Again... where's the stupid "heavy sigh" smiley?)

11. I found some really comfy ones from "Me Too".
And they are quite cute, like ballet flats. :)

13. If I am on my feet a lot I usually use cross trainers with gel heel insert
But the shoes I find unbelievably comfortable are my Chuck Taylor high tops (I have two pairs, one red and one blue).

15. I find my chucks way too uncomfy
for work. I mean, I'm usually on my feet for 10+ hours at a time, and they're just flat with a bit of rubber between my foot and the floor.
But yeah, I've heard other people say that too.
