I’m going on a cruise soon and both feet are a mess.

I’m going on a cruise soon and both feet are a mess. Trying to find comfy sandals to wear while on the ship. Any suggestions? I see Birkenstocks suggested often but I have really narrow thin feet and wondering if they will even work for me…. And all the different options which would be best for PF?

Oofos have worked best for me. They are a little pricey, but right now they are doing their end of the year sale.

If you do Birkenstock they need to be broke in. Wearing them a few hours a day. If you don't do this you will not like them. They eventually mold to your feet, but it is a process.

I do not know where you are from but Fitflop is excellent. Try the microwobbleboard technology that gives the most support and then the anatomicush as variation.

I have had good luck with these. I would just take more than one pair. When I got some sand in them they rubbed blisters when we went to the l beach. https://www.skechers.com/foamies-arch-fit.../111461_WHT.html.

I was thinking about getting a pair of those because they keep coming up in my Facebook feed lol and I was just wondering if you have heel pain does it help relieve the heel pain?

I love aerothotic or vionic for sandals! The cork style sandals I bought from aerothotic saved my feet this summer

I love my leather Chaco Townes. They are so comfortable and worth every penny. I also wear my kuru sandals a lot.

Look into vionics. I have a pair and they’re great.

I am currently on a cruise with bad case of plantar fasciitis and I am wearing Taos. I have zero regrets in my investment

I tried the Birkenstock for a few hours per day, I was in agony at the end of the couple of weeks, with a knee pain returning. Everyone is different..good luck

I am actually at my podiatrist right now taking care of an ingrown toenail and a follow up for the PF and he said he really likes the OOFOOS sandals. I was thinking of ordering a pair off Amazon.
