NMM: Shoe inspection please!

[cgpm]

Do these pass the shoe inspection? Or am I going to have to join the fug shoe club? It was a MM purchase. Only $20 at my local shoe place. ;D





And let me just add, I have large feet and it is just about impossible to find cute shoes that are somewhat comfortable. These fit the bill for me!

[agnes]

Can't see the pictures.

[cgpm]

Sorry! Fixed.

[rubytue]

I wouldn't wear them.

You can take that however you would like.

[yourmom]

You paid $20 to much.

Who am I kidding - even if they were free I would tell you not to wear them.

[Brie]

Sorry. Fug.

[Deleted]

Ew.

[thedutchgirl]

Not good.

[ondaflipside]

These do not look cute nor comfortable.

[Roc A Bee]

These are bad.

Well, guess so. I don't know that I could ever wear anything that MM would approve of anyway (not that I know what would pass approval). Proud to be part of the club!

Seriously?

What size shoes do you wear?

[Awkward]

Those....those are awful. Not like in a "oh but they're high quality and comfortable!"

No. Those look cheap and gross. I can't imagine them being comfortable for more than a few hours and they're not even cute. :N: :N: :N:

11. Plus I have no arches which means things like flats hurt my feet and my ankles roll in. I end up wearing a lot of sandals and I have about 2 pairs of shoes that are flats that don't suck. I'm also not willing to spend more tones of money on shoes. Not in the budget right now.

[adlove]

No. No no no, awful.

[wordtothewise]

The shape of the shoe (minus the heel) isn't bad. The overall style would be much better with a straight heel (preferably stacked) And that material ia awful. I do like the pink lining.

If you have such horrible foot problems, perhaps it would be wise to spend more money on your shoes.

Your shoes may suck because they are so cheap.

I wear size 11 and have flat feet. I don't know how the shoes in your OP accommodate ankle problems. My advice is Nine West, look for sales.

I love my Cole Haan flats, but they are a little more expensive.

I wouldn't call them "horrible." Challenging, yes.

I'm open to suggestions. I am a teacher and spend a lot of time on my feet. I tend to wear lots of skirts and dresses. Have at it!

I have a pair of Nine West black pumps (very classic style and shape, I swear!). They're ok for a couple hours, but after that I'm toast!

My ankles don't hurt, BTW. I just think my feet look funny in shoes where my feel roll in (pronate) and it is obvious. Does that make sense?

[dvlish]

Fug, sorry:(

[Deleted]

Very fug.

You're better off looking for a very plain pair of shoes from a comfort brand. I'm wearing fug-ish shoes today, but they're boring and forgettable. Nobody will remember that my shoes are fug. People will notice those and be horrified.

Toms ballet flats are pretty comfortable. Otherwise, I'd just look for a pair of basic flats from something like Clarks, Privo, Born, etc.

They roll in only if the shoe doesn’t have arch support and/or don’t fit you properly. I have size 10 and am virtually flat footed also. Just have a baby arch. I like Aerosole shoes for when I’m standing for a long time. They have come a long way with their cute factor & have some nice stuff now. Obviously, if you wear an orthopedic insert in a flat shoe, it will help a lot.

[adlove]

What about trying some wedges? They might be easier/more comfortable for you. I'd just get something simple and neutral and well fitting so that you can spend more but get more use out of them.

[kadams767]

Sorry, but those are terrible. Out of curiosity, what were you going to wear them with?

[Deleted]

Go here to buy shoes. www.barefoottess.com/

I learned long ago that you can't shop in person for women's shoes over size 10. Buy a few pairs online, try them and return what doesn't work.

[aspentosh]

What would you even wear with those?

Yeah, I keep making that face, too. And I'm hardly a fashionista. My foot is injured, and I'm wearing these: www.shoesonline4u.co.uk/images/www.shoesonline4u.co.uk/large/th11298476517Un%20Poem%20Black.jpg.

So I'm hardly one to shy from fugly shoes. But those are just...wow.

[Deleted]

Don't know. It's been hurting ever since my NYC trip. I think after I got the blisters on my feet, I messed up my foot from altering my gait.

X-ray was negative. Possibly tendinitis. I'm supposed to keep babying it and will see an orthopedist if it doesn't start to improve. I've had to stop my ibuprofen regimen because I think it's upsetting my stomach. I have a feeling the next step will be an MRI.
