Shoes

Shoes are one of my biggest issues with CP is being able to find a pair of shoes that are nice heck cool would be great. I have add AFO all my life probably 20 different pairs. Shoes are all ways hard to find. For the most part when I was little I just got my shoes a size or two bigger, but sometimes there was not a bigger size of the shoes I wanted so I had to go with a pair I like a little less.

After Jr. High started I chose to not wear my AFO to school or at all. This gave me more freedom to find the shoes I like and that fit me. Even this new found freedom in the shoe department there are still many things I struggle with.

1. Flip flops are cool but I can not really wear them. I trip in them all the time.
2. Sandals in general are hard for some stupid reason back-less sandals are in still. While I need to have backs on my sandal but I would love to be in style just like everyone else.
3. Dress shoes are never easy for me and are perhaps the most frustrating part. I like to be a girl and wear the pretty dress but what do you need with your pretty dress but a great pair of high heels. While those are hard for me for the most part I never wear them. I did make an exception for prom.

While almost everyone struggles with the ability to find a pair of shoes they love. I struggle with finding cool practical shoes. I’m still on the hunt but hopefully an star or supermodel will decide that shoes with backs are the new “it” item.
