please help...i need comfortable clogs for flat feet

I'm a Crocs devotee, mainly because a) they're cheap, and b) they're light. Most "nursing" clogs are heavy, which is the last thing I need given the already considerable burden on my feet from carrying around too many pounds and being older. Professional clogs are also very expensive, so if you buy a pair and they turn out to cause problems, you've thrown away a pile of hard-earned dough.

Crocs, on the other hand (or foot, as it were) cost about $30 and will last a good six months if you are not overweight. They are VERY comfortable and you can just hose 'em down after your shift. For some people, they don't offer adequate support, but they are what got me through my last year of hospital nursing..........at any rate, if you buy a pair and they don't do the trick for you, you've only spent thirty bucks (and you can wear them to work in the garden instead).

Crocks are the best!! Especially when they are great big. They are cheap, colorful, and don,t slip. Get expensive socks that wick moisture away from your feet. Keep a second set of shoes in your locker if your feet start to hurt.

I have been doing this job for nearly 14 years. I started out with a 8narrow and now I wear 9 1/2 extra wide.

Also my favorite doctor is DrScholl. He will be yours too.

Crocs have professional models with no holes. Payless also had some in the past that did not have holes.

I absolutely love my clogs. Used to come home with throbbing feet. Occasionally, my feet hurt at the end of a shift, but nothing like they used to. And I wear both Crocs and the cheapie versions. Love the colors and the easy cleaning.

Like Marla said, if they don't work, you're not out that much money, and you can wear them around the house or at the beach.

Good luck!

And wash them in the dishwasher!

I love my clogs italian style cheapie ones they are light and easy on my knees. I wear compression stockings knee high , very comfy I feel refreshed at the end of a shift.

Birkenstocks, Birkenstocks, Birkenstocks.

Oh, and in case I didn't mention them, Birkenstocks.

I absolutely agree with VivaLasVieja's comment on crocs. They are comfortable and cheap. In addition to the crocs try compression stockings like hotmama2be.

I am a religious devotee of compression stockings. They make my legs feel so much better after a long shift.

I wear 20-30 mmHg knee-high and I love them.

Hope this helps!!
