Feet pain? You’re gonna want to read this.
Guys. These are life changing. No exaggeration. Let me tell you a little story.Over a year and a half ago, I started having horrendous feet pain. (I was 27 and fairly active.) There have been countless times since that I crawled to my bedroom at the end of the day because my feet hurt so bad. I have come to the conclusion that there isn’t much worse than foot pain - it literally makes you want to do absolutely nothing to avoid making it worse.I learned that it is plantar fasciitis and for me it is almost exclusively in my heel. I have tried so many different insoles, tennis shoes, sandals, etc that claim to help and support. Well they didn’t for me. We live far from a city so when we do go it is a full day of shopping and errands. I would always wear tennis shoes with “the best” insoles. I would still limp and cry in pain at the end of the day.In yet another search for relief, I came across Clarks and their Cloudstepper line. Now I don’t enjoy spending $40 on a pair of flip-flops, not even a little bit. But so many of the reviews were so positive and had similar stories to mine so I decided to bite the bullet. And now a week later, I just bought a second pair. Worth👏🏼Every👏🏼Penny.I went to the city to give these the ultimate test. After 6 hours of shopping and walking, I came home all smiles. Normally I consider chopping my feet off just to end the pain at the end of one of those days, but my feet only had a dull ache and I felt like I could’ve kept going. THAT IS HUGE! To some degree I feel like I’ve got my life back - I can go places and do things and not worry about how much pain I’m going to be in at the end of the day.Now, down to a few logistics. I am a solid size 10. I have never found a shoe that doesn’t fit in a size 10. These are no exception. Perfect in that way. I also have never found a shoe that is too narrow in a medium width (some mediums are even a hair too wide) - this is a small exception. The straps are a tiny bit tight, but not uncomfortably so - just not quite used to that. And I can’t help but wonder if they would look a little better as my foot pretty much fills the whole width, but I’m not curious enough to mess with ordering a Wide and having to send a pair back.And it’s fantastic that you get comfort and style! They are very cute. Plenty of fun colors/prints. (I used to think Clarks was an old lady brand. I have since repented of my ways.)If you’ve made it to this point of my small novel, I would wager you are in a similar boat I am with feet pain. I 110% recommend these. They are so cushioning and easy to walk in. Your feet will thank you - mine sure do.
