Ladies please try the Vionic orthaheel Yasmin II sandals! I was on the fence for a while but took the $$ plunge and it Was worth it. I have arthritic hips- knees and back and pronation Of the feet which all put together was becoming a real problem! I was out shopping today in a warehouse type store and boy did I have happy feet. No limping or pain yippee. Highly recommended. Thanks, Q.

If you really have all that arthritis in your feet, knees and hips you should not be wearing sandals - not even orthoheels. You should be wearing a shoe that supports your foot and makes it stable. take it from someone who learned the hard way - you don't want to end up having to wear an ankle brace (i did for 3 years) or have to have major surgery and be in a wheelchair for 5 months - i also ended up with that. Buy yourself a good pair of new Balance antipronation shoes.

I bought two pairs of Orthaheel sandals last year, and loved them. Just received a new pair yesterday.

I bought only one of these pairs from the Q. I haven't seen them in any retail stores, but Zappos, Footsmart, and Amazon all sell them, too. Lots of other styles and colors.

They sound good but aren't wide enough for me.
