This has been one of the most helpful threads on Strathspey in a long
time! Thanks, all, for some great recommendations.

I've been dealing with PF since TAC summer school last August. I
stopped wearing ghillies about three years ago, as they hurt my
bunions too much by scrunching my toes together. I've been wearing
spenco pads in ballet slippers, which is definitley more comfortable.
But now the Plantar Fasciitis has made it very difficult to stand for
long periods of time in thin shoes during dance classes. Even though
I start out feeling ok, by the end of two hours it hurts a lot.
Especially when I'm teaching and don't get to dance much.

Perhaps one of these dance shoes will help.
