I have found Skecher walking shoes with memory foam work pretty well, even figured out how to slide my orthotics under the insole so my foot is padded. Or Bernie Mev woven elastic shoes. Sometimes I find Alegria athletic shoes on sale. With 2-3 pairs to alternate, I get about 1 year out of each pair. For dress up I wear Naot sandals with a cork footbed and at least 3 straps, and anchor my orthotic to it with Velcro. Two pairs last me 4-5 years, wearing 9 months of the year. Or I occasionally wear Rieker shoes which are narrow enough for my foot, and deep enough for orthotics. So...I have very expensive feet, but without the good shoes, the rest of my arthritic body cannot keep moving.
Do you have a favorite?
