Driving Shoes/Trainers
« on: 17 April 2009, 17:10:20 »
I have a problem with my feet that leaves me with sore and swollen heels  (feet) especially when I have been driving a while, this also causes my feet to swell.

Started to wonder what the rally drivers etc wear for comfort, but leaving out the fireproofing side of thier footwear.

Have been looking arround and wondered if any one made shoes/trainers with a gel support arround the heel.  

Prefer to wear trainers but of the stuff I have looked up on ebay all the items have very poor/basic descrips.  Even the gel trainers @ £120 they seem to think if you are buying them you automatically know all about them.

Any thoughts/advice?

TIA  :y :y

I must admit Skruntie I always drive in the shoes I wear most days; between 3 & 1/2" or 4 & 1/2" heels! 8-) 8-) 8-)  

Of course that is no good to you (I hope!!) :D :D :D ;)

I bet you can. :o  But I think my vision of Lizzie in 4.5" heels is better.  Especially when I think of the rest of the things she has mentioned in the last 12 months of the forum.  (whips instantly comes to mind) ::) ::) :-X
