Comfortable Women's Sandal - Abeo Miramar Neutral

The Abeo Miramar Neutral 





This is a wonderfully comfortable women's sandal that can be found at The Walking Company.  What I particularly like about this sandal is the suede-lined footbed and the excellent arch support it offers. It has forefoot, midfoot and rearfoot strapping which helps with biomechanical control of the foot. 


The forefoot strap may be a problem for some ladies with moderate to severe bunions. If the strap rubs right on the bunion it can cause pain, discomfort and even possibly cause the bunion to get larger. If you suffer with bunions, try on the sandal to make sure the straps don't rub across the bunion and, if there is any discomfort, don't get them. 




These Sandals are Recommended to Patients with a history of:
*Mild Bunions (perhaps - depending on the patient)
*Mild to Moderate Hammertoes
*Mild Tailor's Bunions (perhaps - depending on the patient) 
*Mild Tendonitis
*Plantar Fasciitis (Heel Pain)
*Mild Osteoarthritis 
*Hallux Limitus (Limited Range of Motion across the 1st toe joint)
*Mild Capsulitis
*Mild Achilles Tendonitis 
*Metatarsalgia
*Mild Morton's Neuroma




This Sandal is NOT Recommended for Patients with:
*Diabetes
*Peripheral Arterial Disease (poor circulation)
*Peripheral Neuropathy (Nerve damage)
*Charcot Foot
*History of Ulcers 
*Hypermobility
*Ankle Instability 
*Moderate to Severe Bunions or Tailor's Bunions 






Cost: $129.95






Rating: I give this sandal an 8.5 
(on a scale of zero to ten with ten being the best).




Have a wonderful weekend!
