[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 739786, member: 17713"] Do wear 'proper" shors and socks. I think this is paramount to keeping your feet and legs healthy. When I was diagnosed I was told flat, lace ups. Speedy ducks were fantastic but the company went that made them. I've kept to flatties except weddings and funerals. I have perfect shaped legs apparently and my feet are good with good circulation still. Little things help. Currently always in my skechers which I have to admit are like wearing slippers. Gardening I have stainless steel toe boots unless working on river banks which I tend to wear my cut off wellies. Got told the only thing that keeps your feet in high heel slip ons is the fact they squidege your feet because they are too small...so flatties have been a great help to keeping my legs and feet without problems..
