Flip Flops are very very bad for your feet according to my foot nurse.

They were the nemesis of my childhood. They are caltrops with dagger sharp thorns, at least one of which was always turned upwards. They are hard and strong enough to stab through layers of hard sole (de rigeur for a constantly barefoot child) and still draw blood. I loathed the things.

And Gynie, sexy or not, I have always hated high heels, even though I have worn them at times. I guess I just like comfort too much…

My favourites shoes are the flip-flops one, isn’t it funny for someone who has been a shoe seller a few years ! I’ve seen so many people with painfull shoes because they prefer to look nice.Wearing some comfortable shoes is really so important, otherwise you get your feet distorted (can we say distorted en english for feet ?)

In france there is a saying ‘c’est souvent le cordonnier le plus mal chaussé’ in english i’ve discovered this translation “The shoemaker’s children are often shoeless” ^^

My barefeet youth nemesis.
1. Bindi Eyes – Eye shaped thorny weeds cunningly hiding in grass.
2. Chillblanes in winter.
3. Disputes with my mother about waring clunky, pinching shoes to school.
4. Plantar warts that had to be surgically removed from the soles of my feet as a teenager.
5. Finding comfortable shoes for my wide feet even today.

Otherwise, the sheer bliss of running around in bare feet on a farm in my youth.

I’m afraid I don’t do shoes any more, these days I tend to live in running shoes be it summer or winter. As they have orthotics, they are so comfortable and at my age, who cares.
