Congratulations!

New Balance are known for being good for the flat-footed person.

I swear by Birkenstock for the floor, but I don't have flat feet. I don't know about them for that.

I have a very low arch but not completely flat footed. I really like dansko clogs but they are a little pricey but honestly they are the only shoes that I can work 12 hour in and not hurt when I'm done.

I have flat feet also and have tried Crocs, which I trip in about 12 times each time I work in but other than that they are comfortable. Then I tried Dansko's, but it took a while for those shoes to get comfortable, at first they killed my feet but now they are alright, not that crazy about them. Now, I have discovered Quarks, they are the best shoes for me. They feel like butter on my feet and have a built in arch for my flat feet! Try them and see what I mean, there awesomely comfortable!

Hey,

I have a quick question about the dress. Can we make any kind of alteration to make it kind of more fitting on the scrub 'coz I am short and skinny. It is very baggy to me. WHat about the shoes. What do you all think that would be the best shoes. Please tell me where can I buy the shoes allowed in the UALR.

Thanks and cheers:heartbeat:up:

Hey Shanika1m1,

Thanks!!!

I have one more confusion about the UALR dress. You know what I am short and skinny so the S size scrub becomes a little more baggy ( big) Can I just alter it and bring it into the fitting ones. And so is with the pants. Does UALR allow the pannts with the flares or the pants with a little bit fitting? I just dont know when I wear those stuffs it just seems like I am wearing my grandmas pants and scrubs.

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
