Now whilst I've never been much of a high-heeled gal, I would wear them every now and then (when I absolutely had to).
Even so, I like to think that I have some sort of style - that whilst I choose some degree of comfort over working a pair of nine-inch heels 8 hours a day - I'm not lost to loafers and Crocs.
So, back to the ankle surgery: my beautiful lovely Country Road sandals have been nothing but good to me, or so I thought. Turns out completely flat leather/wooden shoe soles aren't all that good for your feet - or your ankles. This makes me sad because I love my shoes.
It makes me even sadder because in my hunt for 'good', comfortable shoes all I have found are eye-sores. Don't get me wrong - Green Cross have a place in this world - for the over 40s - and the same can be said for most pairs of Hush Puppies. But the sin of Crocs is unforgivable. I don't care how comfortable they are.
Hey, here's a thought: Perhaps Green Cross and the other "healthy" shoe companies are also responsible for the incredibly uncomfortable beautiful shoes young girls wear, damaging their feet, and forcing them into FitFlops and Crocs as their insteps slowly collapse.
I digress. The point is - now that I need a pair of decent* sandals, I find my options extremely limited.
*comfortable, posture enhancing, instep supporting
Suggestions welcome.
