Tips from a Female Podiatrist’s Shoe Closet!

Dr. Lucy Meier has had painful flat feet for years. In spite of her foot woes, she loves shoes and loves to wear the latest trends. She has tried many different shoes and understands how difficult it can be to find comfortable shoes with style. She is more than happy to recommend the following brands and help you find a great pair of shoes. Happy shopping!

When shoe shopping, look for:

1. A well-cushioned heel
2. Padding at the ball of your foot
3. A stiff sole that only bends near the toes
4. A wide toe box

Avoid

1. Flexible shoes that can roll up into a ball
2. Thin soles
3. Heels above 2 inches
4. Minimalist (barefoot) shoes
