Subject: Getting married and need comfy shoes

Hello all,

I'm getting married next year and was wondering if anyone knows where I might find any RA friendly bridal shoes that I can wear all day without being crippled by them..?

Hi Lianne, Good luck with your shoe search. It is such a struggle to find shoes.
I am going on a cruise in 3 weeks and am having the same problem, already bought 3 pairs and taken them back after trying them at home and realising they are not comfy after all. It makes me upset that I can't wear heels anymore and have to have specially made insoles in my shoes.
Best of luck and congratulations on your wedding.

Hi Liane, have you tried new look wide fitting shoes. I have OA in my feet and find some of the shoes they sell comfy. Worth a try!! Best of luck.

Thank you ladies,

I'm a sie 5-6 and have narrow feet. The width is no issue for me, it's the soles that I find uncomfortable and heels are often either really skinny and unstable or they're horrid chunky things.

For work I've got some wonderfully comfortable shoes from Clarks which have "SoftWear" which is AMAZINGLY nice to wear, it's just a shame they don't have that kind of sole in prettier, dainty shoes.

Thank you!

Some plain white pumps are my back up plan - don't feel particularly graceful anymore since my arms have become permenantly stuck in a bent position so was hoping for some small heels to add a little more elegance. Hmm...

Will let you know when I've found something : )
