Walking shoes that are comfortable and stylish
HI, RISSA,
I’m looking for a pair of shoes that won’t get me tired after long hours of walking. I dislike those chunky, orthopedic-looking sandals; they look comfy but they aren’t pretty. Please suggest something confortable but stylish.
GRETCH
My feet are loving Cocorose London right now! Ballet shoes are a basic staple in every chic woman’s wardrobe and this brand of foldable ballet shoes is a must! To me, they’re the best foldable shoes that feel like real shoes!
I honestly never really liked foldable ballet flats because the ones I’ve tried aren’t comfortable enough. Either the garters dig into the skin (which will eventually cause ugly blisters) or the soles are just too thin that you can feel the cold, hard floor on the balls of your feet. Yes, I hate foldable ballet flats that feel like you just stepped out wearing the free hotel bedroom slippers. But I fell in love with Cocorose London foldable ballet flats when I first tried them. They were so comfortable that they felt like they already had been broken in! I later learned that each pair features double-cushioned insoles and non-slip outsoles. The shoes provide good padding on the balls of your feet and the comfy elastic band gives a secure fit without cutting into the skin. Another reason why I like it: the foldable ballet flats are made from high-quality materials and are thick enough that you don’t see the joints of your toes or the outline of your feet. Yes, unlike other foldable ballet shoes, you will never look like you are wearing foot socks!
And because I’m always on the go, I like how it comes with a travel purse that can easily fit in your handbag, luggage or even the glove compartment of your car. It’s first aid for your feet that you can stylishly wear after a long day. But I’m pretty sure you’ll like them so much that you’ll end up wearing them every day like me. Fans of the brand include Solenn Heussaff, Iza Calzado, Maricel Laxa Pangilinan, and Patty Laurel.
