I have an old pair of Floridas that I plan to demote to house wear only. </p> <p>Firecracker, I should check out Kork-Ease. I have never tried that brand before. I'm not surprised that you think our feet may be similar. I have noticed that many of the shoes you purchase are the same brands I like to purchase. I have attributed it to your good taste in shoes, but it seems that people with similar types of feet favor the same brands of shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1465040 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 11:40:03 +0000 dakotacheryl 1465040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all, but especially the oxfords....I have a pair of brown boots from that brand and they are so comfy.</p> <p>I really don't understand why it's so hard to find cute flats with ARCH support...sigh</p> <p>If my feet hurt at the end of my work day, I slip on my Birkenstocks, and my feet immediately stop hurting...magic </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1464985 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 05:19:17 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1464985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are wonderful choices, Staysfit. I especially like the laceless oxfords and the Fly Londons, because selfishly, I could see myself wearing them! But the Anyi Lus are gorgeous and will be just right with your dressier clothes as you described. <br />I think we may have similar feet. These look and sound like they would work for me, too. I haven't yet tried Fly London, but I did find with some Kork-Ease sandals I tried on that the higher heeled ones were more supportive than the lower heeled ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1464911 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 01:03:25 +0000 anne 1464911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A great selection.

I have ridiculously high volume feet also. Birks and Fly london are my Fall back summer shoe.<br /> I adore those laceless oxfords - I also can\'t do laceless sneakers my feet rebel- great alternative.<br /> Two brands new to me that I was introduce to through the anniversary sale that work well are<br /> Donald Pilnar and aquatalia - Both also work great for my feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1464023 Fri, 27 Mar 2015 19:27:47 +0000 shedev 1464023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All great choices. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1463929 Fri, 27 Mar 2015 16:28:46 +0000 Sara L. 1463929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the laceless oxfords and the navy blue ones.

Great choices!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1463785 Fri, 27 Mar 2015 11:22:10 +0000 Staysfit 1463785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I'm the same way with flats, and the same heel heights that work for you seem best for me also. If you notice, any shoe that I call a flat, actually has a heel, although usually a very small one. The Picolino's above have a heel like that. I may have some flat flats but they are expensive brands and have built in arch support. If the footbed of a shoe has no arch contour I know it will never work for my foot.</p> <p>The flat Fly's were very pretty, and came in some great spring colors. I really loved a blue pair that is stuck in my brain. Anyone who can fit into them should definitely look. The problem I had was the leather strap that arched over my metatarsals/arches was too large and there was no way to adjust it. I have skinny/bony feet even though they are high volume. I think they would be great for someone who has more padding on their feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1463781 Fri, 27 Mar 2015 11:05:37 +0000 Suz 1463781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all your choices and am particularly jealous of those Flys. I can't wear that brand because I seem to be "between sizes" in it; I have that trouble a lot with British shoes like Flys and Docs. (I seem to fit best in a Euro size).&nbsp;</p> <p>I definitely find that a slightly higher wedge or heel gives me better support. I can't wear complete flats for any length of time. I do best in a shoe with a 3/4 inch to two inch heel or wedge. Higher than 2.5 and it feels too high (as a rule, unless very very well made); lower than 3/4 of an inch and it is just plain excruciating for me to wear for more than a few hours, especially if walking or standing. Not to mention the fact that flats rarely stay on me anyway so I get cramps in my toes from trying in vain to grip.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1463771 Fri, 27 Mar 2015 10:38:55 +0000 Deborah 1463771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great choices! Love #1, what a cool shoe. And I agree the red sandals look so comfy and yet are an interesting and modern shoe. The Mary Janes are very lovely and a great dressy shoe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1463770 Fri, 27 Mar 2015 10:24:12 +0000 Staysfit 1463770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, For running I wear Aasics Nimbus, I'm pretty sure I wear a neutral shoe because I pronate on one side and supinate on the other. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-for-the-high-volume-foot#post-1463723 Fri, 27 Mar 2015 04:30:48 +0000 old chic 1463723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those blue shoes are so fab!

These are my alternative for lace-less sneakers because I have never found a pair that fit.</p> <p>2. &nbsp;Fly London - deep red ankle strap sandals. &nbsp;Comfy and IMO interesting. &nbsp;I also tried the lower heeled Fly's but they were much less supportive of my arches. &nbsp;Interesting. &nbsp;Has anyone else found that to be the case? &nbsp;</p> <p>3. &nbsp;Anyi Lu - light navy Mary Janes. &nbsp;I had a hard time getting a pic of these. &nbsp;They look black in the photo, but IRL they are a beautiful blue, somewhere between dark royal and light navy. &nbsp;These are obviously on the dressier end, and I plan to wear them with my blue and white floral dress, and my new white popover Tibi dress with the dark charcoal print skirt. &nbsp;</p> <p>4. &nbsp;Birkenstock Gizeh's - I admit that I have purchased a third pair. &nbsp;I now own a pair of black, light pink and matte waterproof white. &nbsp;(They feel good on my fussy runners feet right now. &nbsp;I feel like I'm going back to my 20's ) </p> <p></p> <p>I also rejected the Blondo's below&nbsp;and am going to keep the Via Spiga's. &nbsp;I loved the look of the Blondo's. &nbsp;They even felt good initially when I had them on my foot. &nbsp;The problem came when I was walking around my house for a while. &nbsp;For whatever reason, my feet were unhappy. &nbsp;The Via Spigas were more supportive, plus I love that they are perforated leather so they will be cooler in the warm weather, if it ever arrives!</p>
