Wondering how your feet will hold up – all those hikes in the forester, on the beach or on city streets, site-seeing? I hunted far and wide for something special for my tootsies. I wanted something that could really help the health of my feet while I trekked all over the place. My search took me to a sandal- a plantar fasciitis orthotic. What does that me for you?
First of all – they are cute! Sometimes sandals or shoes that are “good” for you are not so easy on the eyes! Better yet, a medical study conducted by a panel of physicians confirmed participants who wore these sandals experienced a decrease in pronation, improving their gait mechanics. What that science means to you is that the orthotic footbeds provide optimal comfort and support while you are trekking around.
How do they help? These sandals combat the effects of plantar fasciitis by providing a stabilizing orthotic footbed. The deep heel cups provide arch support while aligning your feet into a natural position correcting the tendency to over-pronate.

The soft, shock-absorbing EVA footbeds provide arch support while aligning the feet into a natural position so you don’t develop plantar fasciitis. The sandals are completely waterproof! So looks like you could even wear them in the water! I realized I could even wear them on my walks along the beach here in sunny, S. Ca, where I walk all the time!
They aren’t just for vacation. Look out beach, here I come!
