Foot Pain / Flat Feet Help

My GF has flat feet and a lot of foot pain. She is a nurses aide and on her feet a lot. She wants a new pair of slippers for christmas and i wanted to get her a good pair with good support. From what I can tell the Halflinger AT slippers get consistently great reviews, but they are around $90. Has anyone here tried these or have any other suggestions? Its hard for me to justify $90 for slippers unless they are really worth it.

Thanks

Hi Jitter & welcome to the forum. I am with you $90 for a pair of slippers is a little pricey especially when you will be relying on reviews only. I suggest going to a shoe store & seeing what you can come up with. I do hope that your GF invests in some very shoes to work in since she has some foot issues. She could also go to a podiatrist who could possibly help her with some inserts in her work shoes that may help.

Good luck on finding what you are looking for.

I have battled recurrent plantar fasciitis and arch pain from tendonitis for years. The three things that have helped me the most are 1) lace up shoes so she can control the "tension" and support 2) professional orthotics from a podiatrist and 3) Plantar Fasciitis support socks. You can buy them single or in a pair. I know they look pricey, but they honestly do work. So much so that my chiropractor is now recommending them to his other patients with foot pain. You wash them in the sink and hang them to dry overnight and wear them under other socks to keep them clean. She may have to "break into them" by wearing for longer and longer periods of time, but anytime my feet act up now, this is my go to thing! http://www.amazon.com/Sleeves-Plantar-Fasciitis-Compression-Women/dp/B00RJUU7Q6/ref=sr_1_1?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1451445673&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=plantar+fasciitis&psc=1
