How about an article on the most stylish shoes for bunions AND plantar fasciitis? Vionic is my best friend too, but I can only handle the thong models.

For dressy/fancy options Marion Parke has pricey but beautiful options.

I suffer with plantar fasciitis. These worst pain is getting woken up because of a calf cramp with plantar Fasciitis. My favorite shoe is the Hoku One One. Better than vionics. Vionics are awesome though.

Abeo shoes from The Walking Company have great arch support and have really helped me.

In reply to Rachel. Oh, I absolute swear by Vionic shoes. Podiatrist told be about them, and my plantar fasciitis pain DISAPPEARED. I won’t wear any other shoes anymore. I had no idea how much my old shoes (and going barefoot) played a role in my pain. Vionics are the BEST!

Vioincs are my best friend… Love their support… Especially if you have flat feet or fallen arches

I have had problems with plantar fasciitis also and got relief from wearing Naot, Wolkies, and Fly London. All make stylish shoes. Silky shoes tend to be less stylish than the others.

I had a case of plantar fasciitis about 2 years ago and it took almost a full year to heal! I was in agony until I was fitted for orthotics that I could only wear in running shoes. I wore them pretty much daily for 6 months. My feet felt fine when wearing the orthotics/running shoe combination and I cringed when I had to wear normal shoes. I also had a pair of slim line orthotics for dress shoes but they didn’t do nearly the same job. The podiatrist also advised that I not walk barefoot – as if I could anyways – and I purchased a pair of supportive sandals to wear around the house. I did foot strengthening exercises daily and also massaged my arch on a tennis ball. Now, I can wear any shoe that I want without the use of orthotics but I ALWAYS look for shoes with supportive arches. I stay away from flats at all costs and never wear more than a heel height of 1.5”. And when I can, i still wear my running shoes with those bulky orthotics. I NEVER EVER want to be limited in my ability to walk again – and plantar fasciitis is one problem that I can avoid by wearing proper supportive footwear.
