seajae Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 have been looking for decent sandals for a long time with arch support that are comfortable and well made, last week I found a paid of Scholls that are brilliant, only took a couple of years of looking. Finding any decent shoes here is not all that easy and I am a size 43/44 depending on who makes them, These were in a tiny store in the basement of a shopping centre so you do really have to search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazygreg44 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 (edited) in Thailand, I would buy Crocs from the Online Shop lazada. You can pay the bill with the postman at your doorstep. Order one pair to get a hang of their size. Be aware at a price of 1000 THB these are probably copis, not an original. Yet easy to achieve. Crocs are perfect for Thai weather conditions and they protect the toenails from harm on Thai sidewalks fulla bumpers https://www.lazada.co.th/catalog/?q=Crocs+Shoes&_keyori=ss&from=input&spm=..search.go. or those: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/wako-i165372173-s201502022.html? https://www.lazada.co.th/products/solid-i140031415-s160096013.html?

Rc2702 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 There's a brand in thailand for the height shoes. When I lived in bkk I used to see a couple of factories making them in Udon suk. When I say factories I mean one man in a shop house hand making them. The company had a lotof Master shoe makers contracting for them. Very comfortable and very well made. https://www.google.co.th/search?q=just+height+shoes+thailand&client=ms-android-samsung&prmd=ivn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjVnZedg8jbAhUCVH0KHXTmC8kQ_AUIESgB&biw=360&bih=560&gfe_rd=mr#gfe_rd=mr&imgrc=hupLJ_wVRmF2uM: Name is Just in case shoes Price not much more than the shoes you purchased on aliexpress.
