This shoe is supportive and comfortable. I wear it all the time. As a nurse I walk on concrete floors 12 hour shifts at a time and don't have the back or leg pain that I had with other shoes. I used to buy it a JCPenney's every time I needed a new pair but they for some reason quit carrying my size so I ordered a new skechers in my size from them, Skechers D'Lite and my back and legs hurt all the time. I wore the new D'Lites for about 4 1/2 months and ached badly until I got me the sports/millennium edition. Once resuming wearing my "old faithful" shoes my back and legs no longer ache. I love this shoe and will continue purchasing this as my only shoe to wear for all occassions. I hope they never quit making them. If they do I don't know what I will do. If I am made aware that they will ever discontinue this shoe ahead of time, I plan to order up many pairs at one time, NO JOKE!</p> Get your <a href="http://amzn.to/12nyiN6">Skechers Womens Energy Jogger Millenium</a> Now!BBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00496685474983842458noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-633526629691029769.post-31780612280610171872011-09-07T09:44:00.000-07:002013-05-11T00:01:56.318-07:00Great Moderate/Flexible ankle support.<h2> Mueller Ankle Support withstraps Black</h2> <a href="http://amzn.to/12nyhJg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Mueller Ankle Support withstraps Black" border="0" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41wovuiu0cL.jpg" width="320" /></a><p> </p><p>This ankle cuff fits great and is very comfortable to wear. It doesn't run as far up the foot as many of these type of ankle braces do, which makes it much more comfortable because it doesn't rub your instep or bother your natural arch. The support is exactly as expected, moderate, I would rate the level of protection from rolls and sprains as a 4-6 in terms of support. This is exactly what I was looking for. I badly sprained my ankle 6 weeks back and tore two ligaments and badly sprained two more. As soon as I could jog again and get back to playing basketball (at about 70% by myself-at first) I used this for both and it has performed great. It isn't one of those heavy, stiff type of ankle supports. It's more of a little added protection, and a thermal element, which is nice as it keeps my still healing tendons and ligaments loose, warm, and sweaty during workouts. The orthopedists says I'm way ahead of schedule and this thing has helped me out tremendously. I've been playing back at 100% for the past 2 and a half weeks.<br /><br />This brace is great for basketball, soccer, and football. It's streamlined, low profile/not bulky, and doesn't come up too high on the calf. Love it!</p> Get your <a href="http://amzn.to/12nyhJg">Mueller Ankle Support withstraps Black</a> Now!BBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00496685474983842458noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-633526629691029769.post-18736125908716693802011-09-06T11:58:00.000-07:002013-05-11T00:01:56.297-07:00Best slippers<h2> UGG Australia Womens Ansley Slipper</h2> <a href="http://amzn.to/12nyhca" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="UGG Australia Womens Ansley Slipper" border="0" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/319uWGYEfIL.jpg" width="320" /></a><p> </p><p>These shoes are amazing! I was looking for a pair of shoes that would keep my feet warn and hold up in Afghnistan during the winter. This is my third time in the middle east and I wish I had known about these before. I have used the memory foam slippers before but I found that the soles never held up. These are PERFECT! Because of the way the living quarters are set up here, I have to walk about 100 meters to and from the bathroom every time I shower, use the restroom, and conduct personal hygene. With the way the terrain is out here (sharp rocks, dust/dirt, mud when it rains), it is really hard to find warm, comfortable, slip on shoes with soles that are thick and surdy enough that I dont feel sharp rock hurting my feet. On top of that, they dont slip off if I have to run to get out of the rain. I normally wear a size 7.5 in US sizes but I ordered half a size up after reading the reviews. These shoes are amazing and I definitely recommend them to anyone that is in need of comfort around the house. They can take a beating.</p> Get your <a href="http://amzn.to/12nyhca">UGG Australia Womens Ansley Slipper</a> Now!BBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00496685474983842458noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-633526629691029769.post-5881743666417099252011-09-05T04:37:00.000-07:002013-05-11T00:01:56.292-07:00Best Boots Ever<h2> Camper 46557 Womens Boot</h2> <a href="http://amzn.to/12nydJu" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Camper 46557 Womens Boot" border="0" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41aRyjm5QRL.jpg" width="320" /></a><p> </p><p>I normally wear a size 8-8.5 but the 8 in these just felt too big and there was too much room in the bootie and between the bootie and boot part.

End of story.<br /><br />They were originally a gift from my boyfriend when I got into mountain biking because he couldn't stand that I wore cheapy tennis-shoes on the "gnarly" trails we went out on. He was always afraid I'd slip or crash my ankles or toes into rocks or trees. Viola--these shoes saved me from any such disasters and alleviated his worries!<br /><br />You will stick like GLUE to your pedals. To re-position your foot, you have to actually lift it and put it back down. This is super great for pedaling--I never lose my pedals and whack myself in the shins anymore. Moreover, in wet conditions, these things just get grippy-er. I did a hike-a-bike over smooth, wet river-rock (in other words, a skating rink) in these things and felt invincible.<br /><br />The bonus is that they look really good and are genuinely comfortable after you wear them the first few times. When you first get them, they'll feel stiff and might rub a bit--don't give up on them! This is a mark of quality! If your shoes don't require a break-in period, you're wearing less-than-awesome stuff in terms of quality. I wear these shoes on a daily basis, biking or no biking and get lots of compliments on how cool they look. They also do great in the snow and on ice because of the awesome tread.<br /><br />WARNING: These run small. All 5-10's do, it seems. I usually wear an 8.5 in women's and I have these in a 9 but wish I had a 9.5. They're okay and have loosened up slightly over time but thick socks are still a no-go. Order a half size or full size up from what you usually wear and you'll be great.<br /><br />One bonus that may be unrelated: in addition to mountain biking, I like to ride the stationary bike at the gym. When I used to wear my old tennis-shoes, I'd get really nasty foot cramps only 5 miles in, which is less than half of what I like to ride! In these shoes, I never get cramps and have done as much as 20 miles of pedaling on the stationary bike in total comfort. For actual mountain rides, these cannot be beat. The reinforced toe and high ankle will save you over and over again, often without you even knowing about it.<br /><br />They are worth every penny and more.</p> Get your <a href="http://amzn.to/12nyewR">Five Ten KARVER WMS U FiveTenn</a> Now!BBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00496685474983842458noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-633526629691029769.post-73105976446394441972011-09-02T11:15:00.000-07:002013-05-11T00:01:56.227-07:00Perfect fit for small wide feet<h2> ECCO Breeze Ankle Strap Sandal 10 10 5</h2> <a href="http://amzn.to/12nybkK" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="ECCO Breeze Ankle Strap Sandal 10 10 5" border="0" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41zE4-14grL.jpg" width="320" /></a><p> </p><p>I had knee surgery Dec 2011 and developed drop foot. I wear a toe-off brace to hold the foot at roughly 90 degrees. This summer I needed a sandal that I could wear with dresses and slacks and skirts for work in a professional environment. This sandal was perfect. The three straps across the foot and the one around the ankle allow for a multitude of adjustment, so I could fit my brace on one side and just my foot on the other. I had been having to buy 2 pairs of shoes to get two sizes. The shoe is supportive and comfortable and has great foot padding. For anyone wearing a toe-off brace these are definitely worth a try, and for those who just want a great, comfortable sandal that you can dress up or down - these shoes are a winner. I bought both the black leather and the sand seude style.</p> Get your <a href="http://amzn.to/12nybkK">ECCO Breeze Ankle Strap Sandal 10 10 5</a> Now!BBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00496685474983842458noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-633526629691029769.post-40834067765908196232011-09-01T05:52:00.000-07:002013-05-11T00:01:56.223-07:00Back to earlier fit!<h2> Mizuno Womens Wave Inspire Running</h2> <a href="http://amzn.to/12nyaxa" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Mizuno Womens Wave Inspire Running" border="0" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41YRA1LYWGL.jpg" width="320" /></a><p> </p><p>I have just started getting into jogging recently, and I had been wearing a pair of New Balance running shoes that I didn't pay much for to begin with. I always had knee pain and shin splints. I decided that it was time to bite the bullet and look for a real pair of running shoes, so I researched various brands and models. Mizuno was one brand I researched, and when I went onto their website and completed the free online assessment, it recommended the Wave Inspire 8 shoes. So I came on Amazon.com here and read so many good 5 star reviews. I decided to just take the plunge and buy this shoe. I actually bought my regular size 10 shoe, and also a 10.5 shoe (since it was constantly recommended to buy 1/2 size larger than your regular shoe size). Since Amazon had free returns, I thought I would buy both, try both sizes on, and return the one that I didn't want. I actually ended up keeping the shoe that was 1/2 size larger than my usual shoe size. It was a lot more roomy in the toe area, which I thought would be much more comfortable on my feet while running.<br /><br />I've been happy ever since. My feet have been very comfortable from the first moment I wore the shoes, and I have yet to feel any knee pain or shin splints since wearing these. It feels like a dream to run without pain for the first time!</p> Get your <a href="http://amzn.to/12nyaxa">Mizuno Womens Wave Inspire Running</a> Now!BBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00496685474983842458noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-633526629691029769.post-88383157873841957632011-08-31T14:23:00.000-07:002013-05-11T00:01:56.219-07:00Super Sexy Factor--Stileto Ankle Bootie<h2> G2 Fashion Square Sleeves Cropped</h2> <a href="http://amzn.to/12ny9te" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="G2 Fashion Square Sleeves Cropped" border="0" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41VO5Tstx2L.jpg" width="320" /></a><p> </p><p>I am bad at wearing high heels.

He then got a pair of komodo sports for the winter and never wears anything else except his work boots when he goes to work. He is used to going barefoot and swears that vibrams are the closest one can get to being barefoot without removing one's shoes and socks. For the last year, he has talked incessantly about how comfortable the shoes are with people who stop him to inquire about and touch his shoes. I really want to get back into running, an activity in which I've never done well but have enjoyed. The problem is my current shoes are too hot and heavy for the South, even in winter (it's been 60-70 degrees all week). I really wanted a light weight running shoe. After seeing how pleased my boyfriend was (and is) with his vibrams and hearing how they are supposed to be better for feet and posture, I just couldn't resist trying them on.<br /><br />THE PURCHASE:<br />When trying on bikilas in a store, I was certain they wouldn't fit my toes. I thought only "pretty" feet like those of my boyfriend could fit into the toes. I tried on the treksports and the pinky toe did not fit quite right. I tried on a larger pair and those were just over-sized enough to annoy. I tried my correct size of the bikilas and they fit perfectly! Like any other type of clothing, if you don't like how one type fits, try another.<br /><br />WEARING:<br />They were, as many have stated, difficult to get on at first, but they do stretch enough over time to make slipping them on easy. I recall making fun of my boyfriend for taking so long just to put his shoes on while waiting to go out to dinner, but those jokes are a thing of the distant past and he puts them on at least as quickly as he would more conventional shoes.<br /><br />I bought the shoes and started wearing them the next day so I could break them in for running. I was going to use them solely for running, but I ran into an immediate issue: I wanted to wear them every day! The problem I am having is that they get more comfortable as I wear them. I am looking into getting another pair so I can have a pair for everyday shoes and a pair for running. I have not run in them yet, as the weather has been unaccommodating. Since I am basically back to being a beginner runner, I'm not sure that I will have to adjust as much as "real" runners, who have reported needing to alter on their running until getting used to the shoes. Time will tell.<br /><br />I live in a wet, windy area and these shoes offer little insulation. I have not tried them with socks, but probably will, especially when the weather gets cold. They do rub somewhat on the back of the heel, but I have experienced no blistering in the 3 days I've been wearing them. It's barely noticeable and I think it's a matter of breaking them in to alleviate this. My only concern is keeping out debris. I haven't found any reviews mentioning this, but I wonder if small particles like sand pass through the shoe. I would like to try trail running in these and I can see this being very annoying. I've had shoes that collected sand easily and quickly and it isn't pleasant. My boyfriend does say small rocks get caught between the toes occasionally. I do wish bikilas came in solid black or something so they would be less noticeable and attract less attention. So far, the tan/green has been enough of a traditional running shoe color that only 1 person has noticed them (or said anything, rather). I don't dislike how these shoes look, but they are odd looking. Hopefully they will become popular enough to become accepted as normal shoes, but not enough to ruin the brand.</p> Get your <a href="http://amzn.to/12nxVlV">Hi Tec Womens Total Terrain Aquamamatic</a> Now!BBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00496685474983842458noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-633526629691029769.post-83751587009470491172011-08-20T05:32:00.000-07:002013-05-11T00:01:56.022-07:00no more knee pain<h2> Vibram Fivefingers Bikila Magenta Orange</h2> <a href="http://amzn.to/12nxUOW" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Vibram Fivefingers Bikila Magenta Orange" border="0" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51XsDTXXapL.jpg" width="320" /></a><p> </p><p>WHAT MADE ME CONSIDER:<br />My boyfriend got a pair of treksports last summer and never wore anything else except his work boots while at work.

This is exactly what I was looking for. I have worn them out about 4 times now and I must say they are not for wearing/walking in for a lengthy time, but they always get great comments. I wear a size 10 women's shoe so when shopping for sexy shoes it is always hard to find ones that don't make your feet look bigger, but these shoes actually make them look smaller. They are true to size and fit perfectly. I usually wear them without socks and they are very comfy, but again not made for shopping in all day or walking a lot, but are great for date night and parties.
