Walking Shoes

[hoffman1]

DH and I both bought Crocs to wear this year on trip (we were there mid-Sept). We wore them around here at home and thought they would be fine. However, we both got blisters the first day we wore them there.
New balance tennis shoes work best for us.

This post completely makes the point I was posting about earlier. The shoes that were 'killing' me in 2 hours were the ecco performance sneakers! So, what's good for one person isn't necessarily good for another.

I would like to offer another option - Many of us love our Crocs - there's no denying that, but I have found another shoe that is made the same way but has a slightly thicker sole which gives more cushion and it also has better arch support - they are called Nothinz and you can find them on www.shoes.com. Nothinz run more narrow than Crocs. I found some in a local sporting goods store and tried them on. The didn't have the color I wanted, so I started my online search. (Side note - I NEVER EVER buy shoes from online unless I've been able to try them on in a store first.) I found I needed a size 10 in the Nothinz (I wear a 9 Crocs and an 8 1/2 regular shoe).
Shoes.com has free shipping and if you are going to pay with a Visa card, use THIS LINK to get 20% off!

Here's a pic of the Nothinz and the Crocs side by side. You can see that the Nothinz (the blue pair) are a tiny bit more streamlined/narrow looking.

I think you need a permit to post such an ugly picture as that!

I hope that was meant as a joke - I'm not having a good day today and that seems quite mean.
