Theresa,

It's been awhile since I wore shoes. But when i could I used the birkenstocks with velco or the adjustable straps. Now i just find slippers that have a soft bottom but come up high on the ankle keeps the breeze off the feet. Also i also recommed the socks from wal-mart. They don't have all the heavy elastic in them. My feet swell so I need the extra room. I know it's frustrating finding the right foot wear. Keep experimenting there is something out there.

Luv Laurie
