Comfortable summer sandals

**sarahh56** · 02-03-2010, 10:29 PM

I need to find some suitable sandals for going round the theme parks etc in Florida. Normally I live in Birks in the summer ( the one with one strap across) but I want some nice looking comfortable sandals. Help please

Good lord Sarah..... get your zimmer frame!!!

Why won't your usual birks do the trick?

ANyway..... I ahve a pair of these.... and they are very comfy if not very nice to look at.....Buy Sporty Sandals (White) from the Next UK online shop although mine had a toe post last year!

I was going to wear Birks but taking advice from others who have been before they say sandals with backs on IYKWIM are more practical? I think they were thinking of this type of thing http://www.next.co.uk/shopping/women/shoesandboots/61/4 but they really are not me!

Sounds like a good excuse for a new pair

You will walk miles!

I do wear Birks there but I get awful blisters - some may remember my thread after getting back last August. I was even desperate enough to buy Crocs whilst there, but to no avail, they still gave me more blisters. It is the heat that affects me with regards my feet.

Practically I think trainers and socks are probably best - or sports sandals. Just not very stylish. But what I may have to resort to next time.

I will hunt out my old tread as people made lots of suggestions on there.
