The plastic ones tend to have an uncomfortable ridge. Thong sandals have less potential for discomfort to me cause less other straps and little toes don't rub like they do with horizontal straps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2013162 Mon, 18 Mar 2019 14:04:36 +0000 Anonymous 2013162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Note to self to order the EF's . &nbsp;Thanks for this thread! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2013160 Mon, 18 Mar 2019 13:56:32 +0000 Helena 2013160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love my Birkies, and you can get so many different colors and styles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2013152 Mon, 18 Mar 2019 13:15:39 +0000 Ginger 2013152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My Rockport Cobb Hills are amazing. They come in all three widths; the Narrow worked perfectly for me. I can't wait until it warms up enough that I can wear these again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2013110 Mon, 18 Mar 2019 07:10:59 +0000 Gigi 2013110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't recommend any particular finds, but in the past, Naot and Josef Seibel have been great for me for lots of walking. Naots in particular can be very pricey, but they are oh-so-comfy and worth the money. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2013037 Sun, 17 Mar 2019 19:44:57 +0000 JAileen 2013037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i have several pairs of the Naots and think they’re very comfy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2013018 Sun, 17 Mar 2019 18:44:33 +0000 smittie 2013018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Assuming all Naturalizers are super-comfortable, here are a couple more options with a different sole. I think the sole is still thick, but they’re using some optical illusions to make them look thinner.</p> <p><a href="https://www.naturalizer.ca/Mobile/ProductDetail.aspx?p=EC0117347" rel="nofollow">https://www.naturalizer.ca/Mob.....=EC0117347</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.naturalizer.ca/Mobile/ProductDetail.aspx?p=EC0117345" rel="nofollow">https://www.naturalizer.ca/Mob.....=EC0117345</a></p> <p>I’m still waiting for more sandal options to come out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2013009 Sun, 17 Mar 2019 18:25:21 +0000 Angie 2013009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second the Birkies, Eccos, Naots, Campers and Rockports - although all too wide for me.

I have a pair in blush plaited leather and they are super comfy. They are reasonably refined because they are slim fitting and not too chunky. I wear mine with shorts, pants and dresses . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2012855 Sun, 17 Mar 2019 01:37:41 +0000 Brooklyn 2012855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I walk about 10 km a day in my EF sandals. They do have a slightly sporty vibe with the white sole. You can get them in black with a black sole. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2012805 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 19:19:21 +0000 jill58 2012805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same Naot sandals that <b>delurked</b> has and have found them to be great for miles of walking. The metallic ones look better in person. I don't think the photo does them justice.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2012800 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 18:36:03 +0000 ChristelJ 2012800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have worn Clarks for years for serious walking, but the cute ones I had are no longer available. I just got some Clarks that are sporty and clunky, because I was desperate. However, I had these Aravons for a few years and loved them for comfort, walking, and being adjustable in 3 places. I have slightly wide forefeet, narrow heels, and low volume feet. These are not as delicate looking as your old faves, though.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2012799 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 18:27:52 +0000 annagybe 2012799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found a great pair of silver Ecco sandals at the Rack for cheap. Got me through Cuba and Australia.<br />Let me see if I can the style or something similar </p> <p>ETA It was similar to this.&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://us.ecco.com/ecco-flash-t-strap-sandal-240873.html?dwvar_240873_color=57462">https://us.ecco.com/ecco-flash.....olor=57462</a></p> <p>They have a lot of other styles though.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2012785 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 16:27:52 +0000 delurked 2012785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will be following this carefully. I’ve got some that work for a decent amount of walking. Naot Kayla comes in lots of colors, and runs narrower. It’s got a stiff footbed, which would feel different than your last ones. I’ve also found success with Ecco sandals. One shoe I didn’t buy (because I was wearing out my current ones) is Abeo from the Walking Company Brynn. It’s on my list when I need replacement sandals. I realize my choices may skew more “comfort” looking than you prefer. But those seem to work better for me. <a href="https://www.thewalkingcompany.com/abeo-brynn-neutral-red/73246" rel="nofollow">https://www.thewalkingcompany......-red/73246</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-for-lots-of-walking#post-2012782 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 16:05:55 +0000 Mac 2012782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Currently in the USA and scanning amazon and zappos for some sandals I can wear lots this summer. Here are some of my qualifiers:<br /> - Toronto tends to be hot and humid in July and August, so I need some shoes with lots of ventilation<br /> - well-suited for an active mama-on-the-go (chasing son ‘round the park, lots of city walking, up and down stairs, etc).<br /> -I have delicate skin that blisters easily, so alas no sandals that have a thong (piece that goes between toes) .<br /> -Fairly narrow, low volume feet: can usually do M but never W<br /> -Tend to do best with heel height between half and inch and 1.5 inch.<br /> - Prefer something not Too sporty and not Too orthotic, that I could wear with sundresses as well as casual shorts and T-shirt’s<br /> - several years ago I bought a pair advised by Angie - The Smooch style, indigo by Clarks (see attached photo) - that I wore til they disintegrated. Pretty enough, neutral colour, good for dressing up or down and So comfortable for walking... anything of this ilk would be lovely<br /> - born and Clark’s are brands I’ve enjoyed in the past but price and brand are unimportant</p> <p>Do any of you lovelies have a suggestion for me, please? </p> <p>Thanks so much.
