When I (begrudgingly) started venturing back out into the real world and coming back into the office, I struggled to find comfortable outfits that still made me feel put together. Quite frankly, I wasn't used to wearing shoes. During the lockdown phase of the pandemic, I often did my workouts barefoot at home, relying on grippy socks to sound-proof my workouts to keep my downstairs neighbors happy. So when the Zoom calendar e-vites started turning into in-person invites, I figured it was time to upgrade my wardrobe. Eventually I started going back to the gym, found comfy shoes to aid my recovery, and was next determined to find the perfect pair of "going out" Sorel Sneakers  shoes that didn't feel like going out shoes. Enter: Dr. Scholl's Felicity Platform Dress Sandal. I was fa...

Anyone’s feet can hurt after a long period of walking or standing, especially if their shoes aren’t supportive or comfortable. But older adults are more likely to have conditions that can lead to foot discomfort, such as arthri­tis and diabetes. Then there’s the wear and tear that comes with age. “When we’re younger, our feet are more flexible and our skin is more resilient, both of which protect us from conditions such as hammertoes, bunions, and calluses,” says orthopedic surgeon Sean Peden, MD, a foot and ankle specialist at Yale Medicine in New Haven, Conn. Foot issues should be dealt with promptly, he says, because they not only hurt but also can affect mobility and ­increase your risk of falling. For foot care tasks such as cutting toenails, you may want to have a professional ...

MENDOCINO FILM FESTIVAL 2022 REVIEW! Created by Dean Fleischer-Camp and Jenny Slate, the first quirky short starring the mollusk Marcel made waves in 2010. It was followed by two sequels in 2011 and 2014, respectively. Now, that same creative team brings the beloved character to the big screen with Marcel The Shell With His Shoes On.

When a shoe has “Fly” in its title, the smart money would be on it being a lightweight model built for speed. However, that’s necessarily the case with the Diadora Blushield Fly 3 +. It’s by no means a plodder, but its solid build and protective assets give it workhorse tendencies. The first thing that stands out about the shoe is the bootie construction, which gives the foot a welcoming hug. The soft, well-padded Lycra lining produced a cushy feel and prevented any of the lace-digging in the top of the foot that can plague other models with a similar design. Players who prefer a traditional tongue may find an added challenging in getting the shoe on, but the difficulty lessened with each wearing. The bootie is surrounded by the D-Skin mesh cage. It was nicely ventilated for respecta...

Allbirds Tree Flyers review TL;DR: Allbirds’ new performance-oriented running shoe is big on cushioning and comfort but provides less energy return than other tempo trainers. At least it’s more sustainable. I really enjoyed the Allbirds Tree Dasher 2; it’s a brilliant little running shoe for shorter distances and walking, the latter of which I do a lot. Based on my experience with the Tree Dasher 2, I was looking forward to testing the Tree Flyers, Allbirds’ first dedicated performance running shoes. Allbirds recommends the Tree Flyers for everyday road running and tempo runs and it uses the new Swiftfoam which is said to be lighter and provide more rebound NOBULL Shoes Canada than the Sweetfoam, the foam used for the Tree Dasher 2 (and many other Allbirds running shoes).But do the T...
