When you have bunions it effects your ability to work. If your shoes are not comfortable then how can you work? Some shoes are better for bunions than others. What do you look for in a restaurant shoe that would be ideal for bunions? You want a shoe with a wide toe box and the proper width to fit the bunion. Additionally, you want a bunion shoe made of a material that will stretch and contour to your bunion deformity, reducing the amount of pain you will feel. Below I have listed what I believe to be the best restaurant shoes for people with bunions:
Dansko’s wide professional clog– The answer is in its name. There are very few clogs that are ideal for wide feet, but this wide clog is one of the best on the market. The width will allow you to comfortably fit even the worst bunion deformity. Also, one of the advantages with most clogs is they have a wide toe box, which is the portion of the shoe you want to spend the most attention to.
Sketchers for work soft stride lace up– Remember what I said about toe box. Well, this Sketchers for work shoe features one of the wider toe boxes you will find on the market. Additionally it features a cushioned foot bed so if you suffer from foot pain it may help with that as well.
New Balance 626 Slip Resistant Cross Trainers– When you think of wide shoes, you should think of New Balance first. What sets New Balance apart is it allows you to fit the shoe to the width of your foot. So no matter how severe your bunion, New Balance can find a shoe for it to fit. Essentially, if you have a bunion you can never go wrong with a New Balance shoe. They were created with the imperfect foot in mind.
