    What make are they out of interest.
    Thank you, I'm hopeful they will make a difference!

    They are these ones: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gravity-Defyer-Proven-Relief-Womens/dp/B07PKRYCYS/  It looks like they are American and I could only find them on amazon.

    I like the sound of gravity defying trainers…if they aren’t like the feet version of jet packs I’ll be disappointed 😬 I hope they are lovely and comfy.

    Thank you all :)  I've been for a walk in them today, nearly 2 miles, and they are so comfortable.  Not quite jet packs, but nice and cushioned :grin:  My feet aren't hurting much since I came back either. So far so good!

    Only con, is that they are going to be so hot in summer, but needs must if I'm walking any distance.
