another shoe thread...

i literally wore through my crocs and had to throw them out, bought 2 news pairs and have been wearing them everyday, and they are tearing my feet apart. i don't wanna wear sneakers cuz they make my feet too hot in the humidity. so now i'm looking as either a pair of birkenstocks or a pair of bass sandals. does any one wear these to the parks? we're leaving in 20 days so i really gotta make up my mind. i keep buying shoes that feel good in the store but after a day of chasing the kids my feet are killing me, any suggestions?

We love our Tom's. We added those gel inserts and they feel fabulous! I also bought a stick of this stuff you rub on to prevent blisters. If you are looking for waterproof, we also went to The Walking Company and bought our water sandals there.

Good Luck!

I also hate sneakers because my feet get hot. Last year, my DH and I bought Keens and we love them! They are our theme park shoes and we wear them whenever we go. They're great because you get the comfort of a tennis shoe but your feet don't get hot. Another bonus is they're great in the rain; the tread is good and they dry fast. Both of us highly recommend them to everyone. They can run expensive, but we caught ours on sale. They're definitely worth the price however.

Also, I have some birkies that I love but they take a good amont of time to get used to. I wore them a little each day for 2 weeks to get used to them, starting w about 15 minutes the first couple of days. The foot bed takes some getting used to.
When I get them out to wear again after winter, they hurt if I wear them all day.

I'm also a big fan of Keens. They were comfortable from the start.

Have a great trip!!!
