Footwear

I really struggle with my feet whilst in Florida. I have tried lots of different sandals ( Cant wear trainers) and get sore feet all the time which affects our enjoyment.
I have been recommended to try chaco sandals but can't find a stockist in UK.
What do you all wear for the parks that don't cause blisters.

I have tried several pairs of sketchers and my feet get so hot then they rub.

Skechers yoga mat sole sandals. I have both mules and walking sandals. They’re really comfortable. Debenhams and Amazon do them.

Reef fanning flip flops. They have arch support and so comfy!

i know this might sound daft but have you tried sitting with your feet in really salty water to toughen your feet up a bit because it sounds like you have real delicate skin on your feet

I've always suffered really badly with blistering feet. I have no hard skin on my feet and nothing changes that. If I blister, the new skin is just as "delicate", time and time again. Baby soft feet.

I have Earth Spirit and Clarks sandals. All my sandals have to have bendy/flexible soles with loads of cushioning.

Whilst you're out there, pop into somewhere like Dollar Tree and get some Epsom Salts, then soak your feet (and legs if you want) in an Epsom Salt bath every night... that really helps me.

we were in Orlando earlier this month, for 8 nights, I took 5 pairs of flipflops/sandals with me, and I wore them all on alternate days. I suffer with a fallen arch and dodgy ankle, and by alternating what I wore on my feet I didn't get anywhere near the pain (or blisters) I usually would doing a theme park trip.
My shoes were - O'Neill strap sandals, 2x Karrimor walking sandals (the new ones did give me blisters but my old faithfuls didn't) and Gelert Eva walking sandals, all for the parks, and when we went to Discovery Cove I had my fitflops.

Came on here to say the same as sammykitten. Try alternating between a couple of different styles. That way if you do get a blister one day you can wear a different style the next day and they won't rub in the same place.
