Upon a recent visit to The Walking Company I fell in love with the numerous styles and colors of comfortable shoes. Sure, there were the traditional walking brands, like Clarks, Birkenstock and New Balance, but I was blown away by the variety of stylish sandals. For once a girl can be cute and comfortable at the same time!
With the help of the sales assistance, I had my feet scanned for a proper fit and within seconds, a high tech analysis had measured me as a size 39, also known as an 8 US.
I tried on a few pairs and it was love at first step. I even tweeted about them.
The prices of shoes at The Walking Company compare to your average running shoes, therefore, I experienced no sticker shock. However, I needed new running shoes before fancy, fun sandals and I had to overrule any purchases based upon need vs. want. Like a good consumer, I left the store empty handed, but with very sad feet.
A few hours later, I received an email from The Walking Company stating they would like to send me a pair of ABEO Biomechanical Footwear shoes. I only needed to visit the site and make a selection.
You’re joking? No need to tell me twice. I was on it like a fashionista famished for new shoes.
When I visited the site, I discovered the most amazing thing. The Walking Company sells shoes specific to plantar faciistis. I had died and gone to shoe heaven, because my feet would be walking on clouds this summer.
Much like my experience in the store, there were so many fun styles online. After clicking through the site, I decided upon a fun color for summer: the ABEO Sunrise Red Reptile.
Now, I could share with you all the high-tech terminology and features of the shoes, but that’s all listed on the website. You only need to know one thing: I love them.
My Red Reptile ABEO Sunrise shoes are so comfortable. I don’t have any heel pain when I wear them. I can walk in them for hours and never feel a twinge of pain from plantar fasciitis. It’s like wearing running shoes, only much more stylish. I can dress them up or down by coordinating the shoes with a sundress or shorts. I can wear them to church, the mall, the park, the beach, an amusement park or restaurant.
Anything goes with a Sunrise (even a glass of red wine and purple toenail polish), but it’s the trendy comfort that makes this so fitting for my active mother runner lifestyle.
*I received these shoes as a gift from The Walking Company and I received no compensation for my review. This review was offered in return for The Walking Company’s generosity.*
I needed this info! I have PF too and it stinks. 🙁
Those are cute shoes. I can relate to the sticker price thing 🙂
Have a great WW!
POSH
How cool is The Walking Company and how lucky are you?? 🙂 I will be in the market for comfortable flip flops that I can walk in a lot soon since summer will be here before we know it and we have a lot of warmer weather trips planned (Disneyland being one…LOTS of walking!) I just can’t do sneakers in the heat…can we say sweaty shoes? Yuck!
Super cute shoes!!
Comfortable and cute shoes are priceless!
I think showing the shoes at different angles, rather than modeling them with your own feet- would have focused more on the shoe than on your foot, in the shoe.
