Sketchers womens black sneaker

Skechers Womens Energy Jogger Millenium

I have bought this shoe for years, since early 2000. This shoe is supportive and comfortable. I wear it all the time. As a nurse I walk on concrete floors 12 hour shifts at a time and don't have the back or leg pain that I had with other shoes. I used to buy it a JCPenney's every time I needed a new pair but they for some reason quit carrying my size so I ordered a new skechers in my size from them, Skechers D'Lite and my back and legs hurt all the time. I wore the new D'Lites for about 4 1/2 months and ached badly until I got me the sports/millennium edition. Once resuming wearing my "old faithful" shoes my back and legs no longer ache. I love this shoe and will continue purchasing this as my only shoe to wear for all occassions. I hope they never quit making them. If they do I don't know what I will do. If I am made aware that they will ever discontinue this shoe ahead of time, I plan to order up many pairs at one time, NO JOKE!

Great Moderate/Flexible ankle support.

Mueller Ankle Support withstraps Black

This ankle cuff fits great and is very comfortable to wear. It doesn't run as far up the foot as many of these type of ankle braces do, which makes it much more comfortable because it doesn't rub your instep or bother your natural arch. The support is exactly as expected, moderate, I would rate the level of protection from rolls and sprains as a 4-6 in terms of support. This is exactly what I was looking for. I badly sprained my ankle 6 weeks back and tore two ligaments and badly sprained two more. As soon as I could jog again and get back to playing basketball (at about 70% by myself-at first) I used this for both and it has performed great. It isn't one of those heavy, stiff type of ankle supports. It's more of a little added protection, and a thermal element, which is nice as it keeps my still healing tendons and ligaments loose, warm, and sweaty during workouts. The orthopedists says I'm way ahead of schedule and this thing has helped me out tremendously. I've been playing back at 100% for the past 2 and a half weeks.

This brace is great for basketball, soccer, and football. It's streamlined, low profile/not bulky, and doesn't come up too high on the calf. Love it!

Best slippers

UGG Australia Womens Ansley Slipper

These shoes are amazing! I was looking for a pair of shoes that would keep my feet warn and hold up in Afghnistan during the winter. This is my third time in the middle east and I wish I had known about these before. I have used the memory foam slippers before but I found that the soles never held up. These are PERFECT! Because of the way the living quarters are set up here, I have to walk about 100 meters to and from the bathroom every time I shower, use the restroom, and conduct personal hygene. With the way the terrain is out here (sharp rocks, dust/dirt, mud when it rains), it is really hard to find warm, comfortable, slip on shoes with soles that are thick and surdy enough that I dont feel sharp rock hurting my feet. On top of that, they dont slip off if I have to run to get out of the rain. I normally wear a size 7.5 in US sizes but I ordered half a size up after reading the reviews. These shoes are amazing and I definitely recommend them to anyone that is in need of comfort around the house. They can take a beating.

Best Boots Ever

Camper 46557 Womens Boot

I normally wear a size 8-8.5 but the 8 in these just felt too big and there was too much room in the bootie and between the bootie and boot part. I was pretty skeptical about the 7 but had to try because I love the boot. 7 was a bit snug but after two days wearing, it fits great and feels pretty comfortable in the foot area. The shaft is still a bit stiff, but I think it will loosen up. I've worn it with thin socks and no socks. Thick socks would just be too warm for me, but I could probably do it if necessary.
So I would recommend sizing down or trying two sizes if possible.

I wanted Kamik boots no matter what. After googling 'snow boots made in canada' I found this brand and liked it and wanted to support it. The fact that it is made on this continent is great for a lot of reasons.

The best part of the boot is the little maple leaf on the back. So cute. The booty insert is a cool bronzey colour on the outside and orange on the inside and the trim is real shearling. Lastly, the description says 'Made in China' but it says on the boot and box and Kamik website 'Made in Canada'. Amazon just saw 'C' and thought 'China', I guess. But these are very well made and look great, especially in that sea of Sorels out on the streets.

Basically, I'm addicted

Five Ten KARVER WMS U FiveTenn

I absolutely love these shoes. End of story.

They were originally a gift from my boyfriend when I got into mountain biking because he couldn't stand that I wore cheapy tennis-shoes on the "gnarly" trails we went out on. He was always afraid I'd slip or crash my ankles or toes into rocks or trees. Viola--these shoes saved me from any such disasters and alleviated his worries!

You will stick like GLUE to your pedals. To re-position your foot, you have to actually lift it and put it back down. This is super great for pedaling--I never lose my pedals and whack myself in the shins anymore. Moreover, in wet conditions, these things just get grippy-er. I did a hike-a-bike over smooth, wet river-rock (in other words, a skating rink) in these things and felt invincible.

The bonus is that they look really good and are genuinely comfortable after you wear them the first few times. When you first get them, they'll feel stiff and might rub a bit--don't give up on them! This is a mark of quality! If your shoes don't require a break-in period, you're wearing less-than-awesome stuff in terms of quality. I wear these shoes on a daily basis, biking or no biking and get lots of compliments on how cool they look. They also do great in the snow and on ice because of the awesome tread.

WARNING: These run small. All 5-10's do, it seems. I usually wear an 8.5 in women's and I have these in a 9 but wish I had a 9.5. They're okay and have loosened up slightly over time but thick socks are still a no-go. Order a half size or full size up from what you usually wear and you'll be great.

One bonus that may be unrelated: in addition to mountain biking, I like to ride the stationary bike at the gym. When I used to wear my old tennis-shoes, I'd get really nasty foot cramps only 5 miles in, which is less than half of what I like to ride! In these shoes, I never get cramps and have done as much as 20 miles of pedaling on the stationary bike in total comfort. For actual mountain rides, these cannot be beat. The reinforced toe and high ankle will save you over and over again, often without you even knowing about it.

They are worth every penny and more.

Perfect fit for small wide feet

ECCO Breeze Ankle Strap Sandal 10 10 5

I had knee surgery Dec 2011 and developed drop foot. I wear a toe-off brace to hold the foot at roughly 90 degrees. This summer I needed a sandal that I could wear with dresses and slacks and skirts for work in a professional environment. This sandal was perfect. The three straps across the foot and the one around the ankle allow for a multitude of adjustment, so I could fit my brace on one side and just my foot on the other. I had been having to buy 2 pairs of shoes to get two sizes. The shoe is supportive and comfortable and has great foot padding. For anyone wearing a toe-off brace these are definitely worth a try, and for those who just want a great, comfortable sandal that you can dress up or down - these shoes are a winner. I bought both the black leather and the sand seude style.
