Can wearing Crocs help with heel pain?
Asked 3 years ago
I usually wear uncomfortable high-heels at work, and my heels get really sore when I take them off at home. I want to buy a comfy pair of shoes, and Crocs seem like they are quite comfortable. Can they help with heel pain?

No. Crocs can’t help with heel pain either. For better or worse, the rubber Swiss-cheese-like casual footwear hit the shelves in 2002, and are now available in a slew of styles and colors. The rubbery clogs, known as Crocs, may be easy to slip on, but they aren't great for your feet, according to some podiatrists. Invest in heel seat wraps or custom crocs that support your heel.

If you're going to be at work for eight to ten hours every day, wearing crocs won't help you better than high heels. Crocs may be very comfy, but they are ideal for short-term wear. Otherwise, they provide inadequate heel support. A better choice may be to get a well-cushioned shoe with a wide toe box.
