Summer Sandals

Everyone comes in and thinks that sandals are bad for their feet. They assume that they should not be wearing them. However, in this part of the country sandals are part of the culture. Sandals are perfectly fine to wear. But you want to watch out for issues. If you are noticing that the sandals are causing rubbing/blisters/wounds/or foot pain then these are red flags and the sandals should be stopped and your foot evaluated by a doctor. Sandals should also be worn in short periods of time and not for the entire day. For example they are fine to wear to the beach but you would not want to walk 5 miles down the beach in them. Lastly, make sure when you buy a sandal that you try them on and the fit is perfect and they feel comfortable. Enjoy your summer sandal!!
