Fairly heavy? At 6’3” and 203, your BMI =25.4 the upper range of
normal would be 24.9. So you’re just barely outside of the normal
weight range. You might want to look a little harder into the
underlying cause of that joint pain because chances are it may not be
your weight.

I've been happy with both Keen and Chaco offerings in the sandal.
188cm/110kg/Sz 13 (USA)
I'm on my feet quite a lot, but don't go as far as running in them.

You're not heavy in relation to your height and your foot is large enough to
bear it. How old are you?

Try Mephisto if money is no object.

I personally recommend Teva's
They are tough and hardwearing and keep me comfortable.
I even wear them sometimes up a mountain as well as on the flat by a
river.
Hey at Monmouth Regatta in Wales recently, I wore them whilst doing
Umpiring on Control Commission. It was raining at the time and I just
did not want to get my full umpiring clothes too muddy for when I was
on the start later. >> Stay informed about: Sandals with Shock absorbtion for heavy man: Please Recomm.. |

IMHO, Crocs should not be worn by any one over the age of 8, unless on
the beach. They look vile! >> Stay informed about: Sandals with Shock absorbtion for heavy man: Please Recomm.. |
