I started suffering from plantar fasciitis about 16 months ago. Walking became quite painful in regular shoes, forget flip flops or sandals of any kind. I mostly just suffered with it until I came across some reviews for Fit Flops and the Freeway Slide in particular. Other PF sufferers were full of praise for this sandal so I gave it a shot. Before this I wore a brace on my foot at night, heel supports, arch supports, all with really little or no result.

Now, I don't know if this sandal "healed" my heel, but it sure as heck helped it and made it comfortable. I practically lived in them for about a month before my heel pain disappeared. Walking in them is just a pleasure.
