Has anyone ever tried Birkenstock and Birkis? I have 3 pair and they are the main shoes that I wear. I have been wearing them for sometime now and they really help my legs. Just curious if anyone else wears them.

I am on my second pair of Eccos. Not too stylish, but they work best for the neuropothy in my feet. I bought the second pair online. Thay only have a handful of styles. I get the one that you can adjjust the tightness of the parts over the top of the foot.
I am finally giving up hope of ever wearing a pretty hugh heel again. Am going to donate them. :(

I wear them all the time at work. In a way they are like orthotics because the cork insole forms to the shape of your foot. They are very pretty but you gotta do what you gotta do.

I miss being able to wear high heels. I've seen the Zcoils, they seem pretty good for you, but I've never tried them. as for the birkinstocks... nope haven't tried them. right now alls i can afford are the walmart shoes, so i tend to stick with the earthspirits... plenty of cushion inside, durable, and some are pretty cute. :)

No, I like high top work boots or L.L. Bean high top walking sneaks. The high tops help to support my ankles and shins and I'm on my feet a lot.

I haven't the heart to spend the money on a pair of shoes that are that expensive. I go through a lot of shoes on the farm, and at work.
Funny story though... I work in a metal shop so I decided to find myself a pair of steel toes. I found a pair for only 15 and made from sketchers so they look darn good, so I grabbed them. Ever since I have noticed the fatigue in my legs go down significantly? I know I would think it would make it worse, but the extra weight on the toe really helps me move properly. They thick soles and heels help the posture and gait, and I think the added weight is helping build up those leg muscles a little too, LOL. I need new shoes though, cause well, steel toes in the summer time isn't exactly comfortable, hehe. I will look into these other brands, thanks for the suggestions ladies :).
