There's a new fad in town: The Pillow Shoes. They are the rage of TicTac, and I think for good reason. They are cheap, comfortable and casual smart. Although not enough support to walk miles and miles in, pillow shoes offer good enough support to loaf around the house, as well as, run quick errands in the neighborhood.
In warm weather I normally wear $2 Old Navy flip flops around my apartment, but these offer greater support and are arguably more stylish. There are a number of retailers making the shoe style, but I like the brand, Mesh Beach Shoes for their anti-slip soles and ergonomic design claim which is supposed to evenly distribute the pressure between you feet and hips to help avoid the pain of knots and cramps. They are lightweight, waterproof and have lots of happy customers based upon what reads like honest reviews. The website features 6 colors including blue and beige.
More expensive than flip flops for sure, but you get durability, support and style ... a fair trade off ... and hey, you can add a few inches to your height by slipping into a pair.🦶🩴
Interesting...I have not seen them here, but maybe next Summer! Definitely worth a try for a comfy casual shoe.
ReplyDeleteI agree, Trish. I can only wear flip flops around the house. They lack support for outside the home, and as we age we loose the fat on the soles of our feet. It moves up to our hips and bellies, if you ask me. ;) But why, oh why do we loose fat where we really need it on the bottoms of our feet so we can continue to walk barefoot at home and wear more shoe styles mindlessly?
