Everywhere you go, you run into someone wearing a pair of Crocs. You will find Crocs in schools, in the mall, and even in hospitals and doctors offices being worn by young and old alike. So what is all the fuss about Crocs? Personally, I find them to be some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever tried on. Even if you don't like the clog style, they seem to be coming up with new versions everyday. They even have dress shoes for men and women, along with high heels for women as well. But if you have Diabetes or problems with your feet, they have styles for you as well.Through the Crocs Rx link on our Step Alive shoes website, you will be able to view five different types of Crocs from the Rx line. This line was designed specifically with healthy feet in mind. These shoes were designed specifically to eliminate plantar pain and achy feet. They also help people who have injured feet as well as bunions and diabetes. Crocs Rx provide inner support, heel cups, massaging heel nubs as well as arch support. Also, RxCrocs are lined with an antibacterial material that will help prevent fungal and bacterial infections. Plus, Crocs offer more protection to your feet in the warmer months than flip-flops. And Crocs are also certified by the U.S. Ergonomics Council and the American Podiatric Medical Association.

| The "Silver Fox" |
Here is a shoe that is for all the women out there. The Silver Fox is labeled as the feminine comfort shoe for the stylish woman. The Silver Fox has an anatomically designed sole that provides comfortable relief for plantar fasciitis, heel bruises and other plantar injuries. It has a super-soft footbed that provides a gentle environment for sensitive feet, while the feminine style of the shoe allows it to be worn barefoot or with a thin sock for comfort.
You also want to keep paying attention to your feet. Don't get a false sense of support while wearing these shoes. If you are continuing to have problems or pain with your feet, you may need custom molded orthotics or other treatments depending on your diagnosis.
