Z-Coil Shoes: The Pain Relief Footwear

Of the 3 examples of footwear listed here, the Z-Coil name has the largest presence on the Internet. Overall comments about customer satisfaction appear to be overwhelmingly positive. Here are some things to think about before buying Z-Coil shoes.

Havaiana Flip Flops: How Are They Different From Regular Flip Flops?

How are Havaianas different from other flip flops? Well, Havaianas began to distinguish themselves from knock-offs as early as 1970 when they launched a commercial stating that ‘they don’t lose their shape, they don’t smell, and the straps don’t get loose’ — unlike other flip flops.

7 Interesting (But Dangerous) Shoe Fads You Should Be Aware Of

Shoes are necessary, utilitarian, and mostly mandatory. They are also fun, creative, and wonderful expressions of our creativity and personality. In that expression of our personality, many of us gravitate toward different shoe fads. Shoe fads usually take one aspect of a regular shoe and exaggerate it. That means new fabrics, unusual lines, and even extreme heights.

Donate Shoes To Soles4Souls… It’s Easy And FUN!

I hate throwing out shoes, especially when they are in perfectly good condition. Like when your kids have outgrown them. Soles4Souls is a reputable organization that accepts gently worn shoes and gives them to people who are in need of shoes.

GPS Shoes Keep Kids And Adults Safe

I predict that these GPS shoes are going to take our world by storm, and change the way we view keeping our loved ones safe forever. Here’s how they work, and where to get your own pair of GPS shoes.

Shoes, Feet, And Posture: The Importance Of A Good Shoe

Did you know that the right shoe should have a heel that is actually slightly lower than the ball of the foot? And shoes without arch support actually flatten your foot and damage all those tender bones and muscles and ligaments. Here’s how the right shoes affect your feet…

Nike iPod Shoes Let You Track Your Running & Workout Routines

I can’t think of a shoe that is more high-tech than the Nike + iPod workout kit. All you have to do to have the best of all worlds is to get yourself a Apple iPod nano, a pair of Nike+ shoes, and a Nike + iPod Sport Kit. From there, your shoes and your iPod will begin to communicate with one another. You can watch the time, track your miles, and listen to songs — all while receiving real-time feedback about your run.

Flip Flops Gone Bad (Warning Graphic Photos)

Warning: Flip flops made in China and sold at Walmart may be bad for your health.
So, for your feet’s sake — and the feet of your kids — please have a look at the pictures and stories that follow. These are real life cases of flip flops gone bad.

Crocs Shoes… You Either Love ‘Em Or You Hate ‘Em

I like Crocs, but they definitely have their good points and their bad points. The Croc-haters have a point. I mean, there are plenty of Crocs accidents that might warrant someone re-thinking the practicality of wearing Crocs. And then there’s the question as to whether Crocs are environmentally friendly or not… The debate about Crocs continues…

Sweeper Slippers & Mop Shoes… Well, They Just Might Work!

There’s no denying these mop & sweeper slippers make a lot of sense. But I just wonder how many people would actually buy them… I mean, for themselves. I can definitely see how they’d make great gag gifts. And from one spouse who always does all the sweeping and mopping to another… I’d try ’em!

Topless Flip Flops… It’s Like You’re Barefoot!

In my mind, if these were a buck apiece, or at least under $2, then they’d be the hottest thing in footwear. I’d almost rather grab a 6-pack of ’em in different colors and think of them more as disposable sandals than fine fashion footwear. At $13 apiece I’m just an admirer right now.

Bamboo Socks Have Some Incredible Features

Bamboo socks are better than cotton socks due to their incredible absorbency, antibacterial and wicking properties. And, despite what you might think, bamboo is VERY comfortable on the feet!
