Agree. Not a good pair of shoes when you have problems with arch support.

I have a high arch and I pronate when not in proper shoes. Slippers, while comfortable to wear, are not good for walking. I bought Nuu Sol sliders because they have a high arch. I wear mine all day at home. They also make flip flops and croc-style shoes. They’re made in the US (Idaho and Oregon).

@ubelinda I recently bought a pair of barefoot shoes and I love them. I feel as though I’m walking barefoot and I have a lot of control, mostly because my toes can help me adjust the way I stand and walk. When you’re wearing thick soled shoes your toes really don’t affect your balance as much.
