The whole shoe thing drives me crazy, and I have no idea what to do about it.
So far everyone has mentioned having sensitive feet. I have completely insensitive feet and ankles, meaning that I cannot feel whether a shoe fits well or is three sizes too tight, or rubs my ankles, or anything. I have severe pain in my legs and feet, they often feel like they are slowly being fed through a washer mangle, but it is only obliquely related to my footwear if at all. I have to decide whether a shoe fits by whether it leaves red marks or blisters on my foot when I take it off.
I also cannot keep clogs or most sandals on my feet because of the lack of sensation, and inability to move my toes. Fisherman sandals with lots of straps are okay.
Does anyone else have this problem? You could drive a two inch nail into my foot and I wouldn't notice if I wasn't looking.
