Hi, I wear Crocs in the yard and was thinking of buying a pair for slippers in the house. They are as comfortable as anything I've worn so far because they don't fit too closely to the foot.
I can't stand anything enclosing my feet -- even socks -- so I've bought some diebetic socks that don't feel like they are strangling me around the ankles and they have double soles. They are called "All Day Socks" and I bought them at Sears here in Ontario, Canada. Even with those, I constantly take off my socks, walk around barefoot, then my feet can't stand the feel of the floor, carpet, etc., and I put them back on. This goes on all day. I drive myself crazy with the socks on and off all day and I am always rubbing one foot against the other. They constantly feel like cold/burning and with various levels of numbness, tightness. The one I hate the most is when I have been doing too much (like having my shower and trying to dry my hair) and my left leg becomes much more cold/burning/numb and the foot feels like a block of wood. By the time I've washed, dried, dressed and eaten my breakfast, I feel like tearing off the clothes on the lower part of my body, putting a light pair of pjs on and lying down on the bed. Sometimes I end up doing that by about noon so even my clothes are off and on all day. Basically, all I've been wearing since TM are fleece-lined pants and short-sleeved t-shirts. My wardrobe has become very limited! Regards.

If anyone isn't familiar with these, they are vinyl (I think) clog type shoes. They are supposed to be very comfortable, lightweight, etc. I am just wondering how well they will be with us with the HOT FEET. Looking forward to hearing from somebody about these, or I'll go out and be the guinea pig and then let you know. I personally have hated shoes well before I got TM and have taken them off always once I've gotten home. Since having TM with these hotter feet, I only put them on when I'd go out. Now I have Plantar Faciatis, and must wear something on my feet at all times. I think these shoes may be worth trying if they aren't too clunky.
