Have you tried a pair of 'UGGS'? They are made very large and are soft boots inside and out. Very cute too...black ones will go with anything
I live in Washington State and during the winter there are times that I have to force myself to put a shoe on...and everytime I pick the UGGS because they are the most comfy and best looking. I have CRPS in my Right foot as well and have the same problem. I hate only being able to were one shoe! I hope this helps!

My problem is, with the swelling in the front part of my foot, I can't get a shoe on. I've been using an orthopedic boot whenever I leave the house partially because I can't get a shoe on, but also because it helps me avoid walking on the swollen and painful ball of the foot.
I finally discovered Teva sandals fit because the toe strap can be expanded so far. But I live in snow country. What shoe can I possibly wear once cold weather comes that will fit? Anybody have any ideas?
