My daughter wants to get a pair of sandals for our Disney trip in Oct. She has heel spurs and does not know what to get. If anyone has any suggestions she would really appreciate the information. Thank you in advance.

Crocs have these:

RX Relief: introducing the crocs rx relief. ultra soft sole provides a cushioning effect for plantar pain, heel pain, metatarsalgia, and generally achy feet; wide toe box is ideal for many post-op conditions, as well as bunions.

Cloud: introducing our crocs rx diabetic shoe. specifically designed with the diabetic foot in mind. ideal for ultra-sensitive feet, impaired circulation, impaired sensation. design features: protective toe cap, elevated heel rim and super soft foot bed.

Silver Cloud: all the benefits of the cloud diabetic comfort shoe plus silver. impregnated with silver particles, the silver cloud creates an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal environment for the foot.

I don't know where you can buy them though, other than direct from Crocs or maybe order through an actual Crocs store or mall cart?

Hey there,
I always wear a nice cushiony pair of flip flops. Like nikes or addidas ones...but then again for me, in addition to heel spurs I have flat feet!:rolleyes:

I'm getting ready to purchase some RX Relief Crocs for our August trip.
I have come to the conclusion that all crocs are different. I have 2 pair of Beach Crocs. The first pair I got 3 years ago and they still are very comfy. I got another pair this past Christmas. The soles are much stiffer and not as comfy. My suggestion is to try on several pairs to find the most comfy ones for you.

I have never tried the crocs....they just don't look comfy to me......But I absolutely LOVE my Keen Newports........They gave me plenty of support in long park days and NO achy calves at night. I highly recommend them....:thumbsup2

I have extremely flat feet and a terrible spur on my right heel...I swear by Clarks. They are soft, durable and the foot bed molds to your foot over time creating a kind of "orthodic" to support your foot. You can get them on line or the best prices I've seen are at JC Penney and QVC.
Good Luck

Thank you all for all the help with the heel spur issue. I would like her to have a pair of sandals to wear for our trip that are comfy on her so that she can keep up with me and my dgd's. I will have her check the ones that you all have reccomended and she what feels good to her. Thanks again.
