This shop has excellent walking (and other) shoes for weird feet. mclaughlancomfortshoes.com.au Strong recommend if you 'difficult' feet or like me have wide small feet that are different sizes as they'll split pairs. Store is in the WORST shopping mall in Melbourne - Bell St Mall but Bell St buses do go past and the 250 bus on Rathdowne goes right by the Mall on its way to La Trobe Uni. No online sales unfortunately. Best substitute for Angels Shoes I've yet discovered. I wept when Angels shut down.

One of Melb's unsung jewels I reckon. Needs to be kept in business permanently.

Just wanted to say thanks for the recommendation, I finally went there this week and was very pleased I did.

Whatever you choose get insoles. Doesn't even have to be expensive ones.

Also the most comfortable shoes I've ever had were Skechers.
