Shuropody, shure thing!

I have said much in this column about the necessity of comfortable and attractive footwear for the normally-functioning woman, which is why finding a brand that upholds this flag fills me with delight. But until now, I had associated any shoe with an even vague medical aura about it with crutches and calipers and out-held collecting tins. What joy then, to stumble across Jaycee from the Shuropody Foot Clinic, sneaker shoes that are stylish, comfortable and supportive in every sense. Fashioned from a mix of suede leather and nylon net, Jaycee is laced up front, with a cute and useful zip on the outer side. The shoe sports a useful “comfort cushion” insole of memory foam that provides additional arch support. A fashionable grey band about the upper base adds definition to the sneaker, hinting at the red and grey textured sole underneath. A Jaycee shoe style is available also, in silver, navy and blossom-pink leather. The style retails for £45-£48.
