Hi Jenni These look good and with a bit of styling! Love the colour too They don't seem to have any arch support though? Or do my eyed deceive me?  At the price quoted they need to be spot on! Lyn x

Thanks Jenni, these do look really good, much better than old granny ones lol!!!! I have just been to orthotics last week, he had me move around a little, stand up straight etc, asked if my feet and ankles hurt as soon as I stand, I said yes, he replied "thought so". He was meant to liaise with foot clinic, but he said they are way behind with appointments, mine is for 5th August, so that lets that out. He took moulds of my feet and is making me some insoles. He also advised wearing trainers, he said the ones I have wont work, as they need a more built up back, and toes that are not levelly on the floor (I know that sounds odd) but I have bought a pair of nike ones with velcro strap. The problem is that because of the swelling on my ankles the straps dig in to my foot. I have had this problem with the normal running shoes too. Still, hopefully I can persevere with them, he can then fit the insoles for me. Oh, RA, what are you doing to us!!!???? BARBARA

Hi Jenni
Love the sandals. I wear sandals most of the time and asked my podiatrist if he could make my insoles so they could fit into sandals too. They are great I just use double sided strong pads from B & Q and they can be worn in anything. I wear hotters all the time and although they have some nice ones I thing these are much more modern and pleasing to the eye. I will be interested to hear how comfortable they are.

Hi Jenni They look really nice... my favourite colour too. I tend to live in trainers... although I did get some nice leather sandals in a market in Tenerife - which are nice too. As it's through Amazon, you can probably try them - and send them back if they don't fit, or don't look as you expect. I think we deserve a few treats in life. I always buy myself a birthday present from me! (A little luxury). That way I get something I really want!!! Anne xx

Hello Jenni Think they are lovely , great colour. Make sure they have arch support though. I had a pedicure last month to go to France. Bright pink and a little 'diamond' on the big toe, and yes made me feel great. . . Rose

Gorgeous Jenni! My shoe envy is kicking in again though!! I went to the Bolton nras meeting two weeks ago and we had a talk from the podiatrist and we all harangued the poor man, about shoes!!! Bevxx

No we didn't Jean, honest. He did give a very good talk enjoyed by everyone, and showed us the ways he assesses feet. You know how it is with women, ra and shoes, it's everyone's favourite moan!
Hope you are feeling better Jean, it's nice to see you on here again.

they are lovely- although i can't have ankle straps as my left ankle swellls badly in warm weather. I also can't cope with buckles and I'm too proud to ask for help!!!
Despite my original misgivings I've found fitflops great. I've treated myself to 2 pairs- a lovely pair with diamantes for evening and a pair of black ones with studs to go with my jeans. I could buy more but better not.All I need now is the weather.......

Well they are lovely and rarely off my feet.
no i cant do the buckles. but then I cant get me shoes on meself anyhow!
they are very very light and you honestly feel like you arent wearing any shoes!- I have no arches to support and walking is a once in a blue moon occurance and they look splendid.
