Born Offers Quality Comfort Footwear For Your Everyday Life

Let’s face it; there are only a few times (during the day, at least) where we are allowed to be off of our feet. Whether it’s going to work, running errands, or simply taking the dog for a walk around the block, you’re likely on your feet for a significant period of time each day. While staying active is certainly important for your health, constant standing or walking can have a severe negative impact on your feet if you’re not wearing the proper shoes to accommodate your busy lifestyle.

Unfortunately, most don’t think “˜comfort footwear’ when it comes time to choose a shoe for their everyday life. This is mostly due to the fact that consumers often put style over comfortability when it comes to anything fashion-related, including shoes. However, this decision can lead to the compounding of existing foot conditions – such as plantar fasciitis, fallen arches, diabetic neuropathy, and more – and can even create new ailments over time.

How Quality Comfort Shoes Benefit Your Feet

Choosing comfort shoes can make all the difference when it comes to the health of your feet, especially if you have existing foot conditions that have been impacting your mobility. This is because comfort footwear is built specifically to support your feet while providing the all-day comfort to meet your needs.

The alternative – which is to opt for stylish shoes that are not comfortable – can leave your feet feeling sore and painful at the end of the day. In fact, according to orthopedic surgeon Dr. Glenn Shi (from Mayo Clinic), wearing shoes that are too tight, too small, or lacking in support is almost a guarantee to compound foot problems and could even cause deformities.

Dr. Shi says opting for style over a good fit can really cause issues. For example, some flip-flops don’t give the sole of your feet enough support, prompting aching arches. And high heels, especially those that are too narrow, put pressure on the small bones in your toes, possibly resulting in bunions, hammertoes or neuromas. Neuromas are painful thickening of tissues around nerves, often occurring between the third and fourth toes.

The good news is, comfort footwear can solve and/or prevent many of the most common foot problems, including:

Plantar Fasciitis –

Known as one of the most common causes of heel pain, Plantar Fasciitis involves inflammation of a thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of your foot and connects your heel bone to your toes.

Diabetic Neuropathy –

Diabetic neuropathy is a type of nerve damage that can occur if you have diabetes. High blood sugar (glucose) can injure nerves throughout your body.

Pronation –

Although pronation is a natural movement of the foot, the size and strength of the runner’s arch can affect the foot’s ability to roll, causing either supination (underpronation) or overpronation.

Shin Splints –

Shin splints result when muscles, tendons, and bone tissue become overworked. They often occur in athletes who’ve recently intensified or changed their training routines.

If you’re experiencing any of these issues, then purchasing the proper comfort shoes is imperative to regaining your mobility and getting you back to your everyday routine.

Can Comfort Footwear be Stylish?

While the benefits of choosing comfort shoes are apparent, the drawback for most is the lack of style these type of shoes typically offer. Most comfort footwear companies opt for outdated or uninspired designs, however, at Lucky Feet Shoes we’re proud to offer brands that not only make your feet feel great but look great as well!

One of the most popular comfort footwear brands when it comes to both style and comfort is Born. The Connecticut-based company has made a name for themselves by releasing everything from comfort boots, clogs, sandals, and more that look just as incredible as they feel.

Much of Born’s success and popularity with consumers can be attributed to their unique artistic direction and extreme attention to detail with every shoe they design. Each Born comfort shoe is meticulously crafted using only the highest quality of materials – such as genuine leather and brushed metal — and is built to provide the best in support and comfort.

What Separates Born from Other Comfort Footwear Brands?

There are a plethora of comfort footwear brands out there, so what makes Born so unique? The answer lies in their unique approach to shoemaking, which is akin to how shoes were made long ago. The company refuses to cut corners when it comes to making the highest quality shoe possible, and their hand-crafted methods for shoemaking is a painstakingly long process that yields jaw-dropping results.

If you visit Born’s website, you’ll quickly learn the term “Comfort by Construction” which is what the company uses to describe the quality that goes into each and every one of their shoes. To see the standard construction method and materials Born uses with every shoe, we have broken it down below:

Leather Upper –

Born uses fashionable, leather lined uppers made from the best leathers from the finest tanneries around the globe.

Leather Sock –

A leather or high-tech fabric sock helps to keep the foot dry and eliminate odor-causing bacteria.

Arch Cushion –

The foam cushion provides ergonomic support and comfort.

Dual-Density Foam Cushion –

Cushion and support foam combine to reinforce the foot while maintaining maximum flexibility.

Air Diffusion Layer –

This special layer reduces the puffing noise that can occur when walking by distributing the air pressure along the sole and preventing it from escaping.

Lightweight Sole –

Super-light and durable outsoles, made from the highest quality materials, are sculpted for a trend-right look.
