A Website With Podiatrist-Approved Shoe Recommendations
posted by: freePOrnaoa in General on August 30th, 2011
I am loving a website called Podiatry Shoe Review these days. Written by a doctor of podiatric medicine named Cathleen A. McCarthy, Podiatry Shoe Review recommends shoes that are good-looking and good for your feet, from a medical perspective.
I love that Dr. McCarthy is one of our readers and recently commented on one of my posts, which is how I found her website. Her wonderful website makes very specific recommendations for different types of ailments, and I highly recommend you go check it out now if you’ve got foot troubles.
Dr. McCarthy recently reminded her readers in a post how important it is to have full support in the front, back and middle of the shoe, and I thought of all the shoes I have that my foot could easily slide out of because there is no support strap/slingback at the heel. I also realized because of her how much harder my leg and calf must work when I don’t have full support.
Dr. McCarthy recommends a rigid sole, but a cushioned insole. These Earth Razzle shoes (pictured) I just purchased on major sale at The Tannery in Boston fit the bill, and I am loving the comfort!
In an effort to take better care of my plantar fasciitis that has flared up over the summer (probably from walking a ton in bad shoes), I am looking for new shoes for the fall. I can’t wait to get more Earth shoes for fall, but I’m looking for more extreme comfort/podiatrist-seal-of-approval boots and flats for the fall and winter. The kind of flats and boots Dr. McCarthy would approve of. Black or reddish preferred. Not too giant like a boat, and not too frumpy or cutesy. Sleek and streamlined, and as handsome as orthotic-type shoes get, but with tons of support and a very cushy insole. No wedges. Suitable for everyday wear.
Any recs, readers? Especially from those of you who suffer from plantar fasciitis or are podiatrists?

Thanks The Walking Company! I actually was looking at your website and Umberto Raffini yesterday! Is there a specific category of shoes on the website for those with foot problems?

Try Chaco! If you don't have a wide foot, their women's shoes will fit you fine. Between Chacos and Birkenstocks, I have been able to keep my plantar fasciitis at bay enough that I can wear a regular shoe for a short period of time. And in the winter at home, I life in Haflinger wool clogs.

I just received my chilliwack parka by post having ordered it online. I thought that I had researched my size correctly (42 Europe) but the medium is a bit snug, therefore my advice is not to buy it online and try it on before you purchase it. also remember it is very waisted so if it is very cold your legs will feel it. finally for this price i'm not convinced it is good value.
