Thank you so much for reading ...Hi Dying4Chocolate,<br />Thank you so much for reading the blog! I checked out the Vigotti shoes and I'm sorry to say that I don't think they are going to be a good choice for foot comfort. The problem with them is that the sole is too thin (and probably too flexible, which I can't be sure about until I feel the shoe and check it myself, which I haven't been able to do yet). I don't have a problem with ballerina flats as long as they have a thick rigid sole, which can be a challenge to find! What I do like about the Vigotti shoes is has the wide(ish) toebox and it does have rearfoot control. If you found those same shoes with a thick rigid sole - you will be sooooo much more comfortable. If it's really important to get that look, you might want to consider taking that shoe to a Cobbler or Shoe Repair shop and asking them to build up the sole to make it more thick and rigid. No one would know and it would be much more comfortable and last longer. <br />For a cuter look than Dansko without sacrificing comfort - check out Tsubo, Earthies and Born. <br />Hope all goes well and good luck!<br />P.S. I love dark chocolate too!<br />Cathy McCarthy <br />:)Doctor of Podiatry Discusses and Recommends Shoes.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16089487452078445266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613146076654241194.post-19176887619241943432012-06-23T09:43:48.628-07:002012-06-23T09:43:48.628-07:00Hi Louise!

When it comes to shoes, I learned most of what I know from listening to patients talk about what works and doesn't work for them with their shoes. I'm not able to buy every shoe that I review so your comments help me more than you know!<br />Thanks for reading and commenting!<br />Cathy McCarthy<br />:)Doctor of Podiatry Discusses and Recommends Shoes.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16089487452078445266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613146076654241194.post-19330590642547200812012-06-20T16:45:34.197-07:002012-06-20T16:45:34.197-07:00Hi Cathleen!

I was looking at some of their flats (namely the Sabinus, Salinde, and Shiron) and saw that they offered much more arch support than other flats. I know they're not Danskos but do you think they are worth it?Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14382549430694714890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613146076654241194.post-41357105764687955712012-06-19T10:56:23.016-07:002012-06-19T10:56:23.016-07:00I almost bought this shoe in the blue through Zapp...I almost bought this shoe in the blue through Zappos, but they sold out of my size. I was so disappointed! I'm going to see if I can find it at another retailer.<br /><br />I ordered one size up just to see the shoe. There is no adjustability across the toes, so if the straps there start out loose there is no way to adjust them. But it is a very narrow style, so it shouldn't be loose on many feet.<br /><br />The Prestige has the same sole as the Naot Flirt, which I have and love. It is, indeed, a very stable shoe and works great with my plantar fasciitis. It is also a little tighter across the toes for a more snug fit on a narrow foot, but can only be tightened across the ankle, not the instep.<br /><br />Another cute and funky Naot style is the Relate. Great velcro adjustments across top and back, rigid sole, awesome arch support. Definitely do NOT look like "old lady orthotic" shoes! I'm wearing mine today :-)Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306854459459257368noreply@blogger.com
