Need new shoes, gentle, comfy, cushioned shoes/slippers! It's gotten bad- for over a year we've been living in a unit that has polished concrete floors- rugs and mats everywhere. But, can't endure any more, I wake up in the mornings with throbbing feet, I've tried a lot to make it manageable but I obviously just need a new pair shoes/slippers to wear around the house during mornings and nights, something with good cushioning- in an ideal world slip on shoes- but idc, just want out of pain, maybe you think inserts are the answer?? Offer anything that's worked for you and yours- I'll be so grateful! As always, thanks comrades!

Edit: Thank you everyone soooo much! My first move is buying a pair of crocks for around the house, I found a drug store nearby that has the dr.scolls insole machine. And long term will think about a pair of Altra's and look for sales(they are not cheap). Thank you hexbears!!

Moccasins indoors, properly shaped insoles for outdoors. Been wearing workboots in some fashion for most of my life, thin insoles are the biggest causes of foot pain for me personally.
