BORN SANDALS
I'm really impressed with Born's casual summer sandals. I'm featuring my three favorite Born sandals and, by favorite, I mean that I think they are the cutest as well as well structured and comfortable.
These shoes will work for many patients. However, there are certain foot and ankle conditions that, if you have them, this is not an appropriate shoe for you to wear. I usually have a "This shoe is recommended for" list but I am not including one here because if you have foot pain, this is not the type of shoe you should be wearing! If you have had foot or ankle pain for more than three days, I highly recommend that you follow up with a Podiatrist for evaluation and treatment.
This type of shoe should not be worn if you have significant foot, knee, hip or lower back pain!
What makes this shoe better than most is that it has a thick rigid sole which is protective of the foot and it has forefoot, midfoot and rearfoot strapping for better biomechanical control. If you know that you can't tolerate heels, that typically means that you have a forefoot issue (such as Hallux Limitus) where you can't get enough motion across the 1st toe joint to comfortably wear a heel and this shoe will not be comfortable for you.
