After my first attack, I found a shoe that I'm in love with. They're super cute and everyone stops me each time I wear them and compliments me and ask where I got em. They feel better than having houseshoes on, help my balance and come in so many cute patterns/prints and styles... it's not an athletic shoe but so versatile...
www.alegriashoes.com. I have the mary jane style... LOVE EM !

I only wear tennis shoes! I don't trust any thing else! New Balance is a good fit for me!

Those are so cute. More than I am used to paying, but I think it's going to be an important thing. I am catching my toes on everything. I am so sick of falling on my face. Just seems like the tops of my feet and the fronts of my shins just go dead, they don't lift the feet. After about thirty steps is usually when it happens when I walk. Going up hill at the cemetery is when I really feel it. These are really thinner at the toe, so I can see if I drag my toes that would be a good thing. Thanks, so glad I read this.

Hi
I've been on sneakers forever. Now my feet are always on fire, spasticity on one leg, drags or goes anywhere. I went to check shoes for diabetic people (I'm not) thinking they might be comfortable, the salesperson told me to check nurses shoes because they are cheaper. I did, and I found since they are ment to be for standing for long periods, they are well cushion, wide front, very comfortable, since my toes are restless. Similar to Mary Janes but double velcro straps. I kept losing my sneakers before, they just came out of bad foot, now this new ones stay, I haven't had any problems.

They have so many different styles and colors. I'm sticking to nurses shoes from now on. They are light weight.

Good luck searching, Alma

Thank you all so much for your replies (for some reason I did not get this emailed lol) but this has helped a lot and also to know that I am not the only one who keeps falling on their face or ALMOST falling ugh. Very frustrating. Thank you again!!
