i tried them on at the shop but couldn't get comfortable at all. (but my feet have their own issues)

I use mine for just general running around, like to the shops (if they go with what I'm wearing - very particular about my shoes & clothes going). I do not use them when I'm doing any proper exercise as they don't give me as much support as say my running shoes do for walking/jogging/running or my cross-trainers for general gym work.

I walk a bit straighter when I'm wearing them as the shape of the soles force you to. I find that if I wear them and then decide to go running the same day, it stuffs up my stride for running because they encourage you to walk heel to toe, you don't run the same way.

I got the diodora ones and grabbed them off ebay.

Thanks for your replies,

I have to wear orthotics in runners, i wonder if this will make them more ineffective?

I have the fit-flops. Not a huge fan but after a day you can feel the difference.
If you have joint or balance issues then they're not great.

I have fit-flops.. it took me a bit to get used to them but now they are my everyday shoes.. they are just slip ons though so I would not reccomend them for running & sports.
But I do think they are super comfy, and I fell like my feet are well supported.
I got them off ozsale.
