Thanks for the suggestion on the moccasin type shoe, @robschweiger. Do you feel the type of sole is what is making the most impact with helping the neuropathy in your feet, or some other component of that shoe?

@jeffrapp - also interested in what you have found with the particular soles in your boots that seems to help delay the onset of burning? Fur, support offered, or something else?

@pfbacon - do you find that softness inside of your shoes - through the shoe design itself or added insoles - is the key to keeping your feet the least painful?

I have several pairs of Ugg shoes and boots, I find that the shearling insole liners and lining of the uppers delay the onset of burning which I experience when wearing regular shoes. I have even ordered shearling insoles from Ugg and other manufacturers, and scrap pieces of shearling (cheaper) to make my own liners.
It's not a miracle, but it helps.
I feel best when I can walk around barefoot, which is problematic in the winter.
Interestingly, I also feel better when the sun is out. Has anyone else noticed this?
