Whatever ails you and your feet, you're bound to find something that soothes your tired tootsies here.

Dr. Zaydenberg is most intrigued by the shoe's thick base. "The platform is good for people with insertional Achilles tendonitis," Dr. Zaydenberg explained.
Translation: You're experiencing inflammation at the back of your foot, where your Achilles tendon meets the heel bone.
"Elevating your heel is relaxing the Achilles tendon, and it provides less tension in the area of concern," Dr. Zaydenberg adds. Choose from 38 colors!

"The bungee cord accommodates wider feet," she explained. "It's also great for those with a larger instep."
