Has anyone noticed, FLATS HURT!!!!?!?!?!?

Question

Is it just me, or do flats hurt your toes reallyyyy bad. I try on a size, and it's too small because my toes cram , then I try on a larger one but my heel keeps slipping off.

Even though they look FABULOUS, they don't seem to fit well. But if you had to choose, would you rather wear them too tight or too loose?

Answer 1

the only reason they hurt for me is because i have a high arch on my foot, so i can last all day in heels, but barely six hours in flats... hehe

Answer 2

too loose, definitely. i'm all about comfort. my flats are very comfy, you need the right size!!

Answer 3

Answer 4

mine did hurt for awhile. but my toes kinda stretch it and after awhile its really comfy :)  

Answer 5

They do hurt! But in a different way for me. If I don't wear bandaids on the backs of my ankles I get cuts from the flats.

And if I had to pick, I'd go for too loose. I put cotton balls in them to help fit better.

Answer 6

Yeah, that's why we stopped wearing them in the 80's

Answer 7

Ya, they hurt your toes, they are not very good for arch support, and sometimes they put cuts on the back of your heal. Ugg i love them and hate them. Flats and I have a very complicated relationship. lol. If i had to choose between light or loose I would say tight. Cuz loose can make you tip and fall. =P Not good.

Answer 8

Just get the ones where your heels slip out (if they are only a bit big), and buy heel inserts at Nordstrom. You pop them onto the back of the shoes, and they will make the shoes a bit smaller.

I hope this helps!

Answer 9

you probably need to find the right fit... try half sizes and also gel or padded inserts work miracles in any shoe!

keep trying them on, you will find a pair eventually.

Answer 10

I buy mine a little bigger, so i can insert pads on the bottom for the perfect fit :]

and i take off my flats whenever i can, like hwne i'm sitting.

Answer 11

not mine, i have confy ones. sorry, that would suck!
