I lived in New York at the time, and could be seen standing for hours on events or running all over town, Carrie Bradshaw-style, feet clad in sky-high stilettos. But then came an unfortunate (and painful) ankle break in my mid-30s, and I had to change my ways. I still get back into my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/best-heels-to-walk-in\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/best-heels-to-walk-in\/\">heels<\/a> when warranted, but those times are fewer and further between\u2014and I\u2019ve had to shift to finding shoes that are cute yet comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>That being said, there comes a time when comfort wins out. When that happens, slippers like the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fqvc.uikc.net%2Fc%2F2372336%2F565130%2F9368%3FsubId1%3DSTMSSY-1092955%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.qvc.com%252FRevitalign-Orthotic-Perforated-Suede-Mules---Siesta-Tile.product.A618825.html%253Fsc%253DNAVLIST&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Frevitalign-orthotic-mule-slippers%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.qvc.com\/Revitalign-Orthotic-Perforated-Suede-Mules---Siesta-Tile.product.A618825.html?sc=NAVLIST\">Revitalign Orthotic Perforated Suede Mules<\/a>\u00a0are definitely in order, especially since I\u2019ve learned that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/is-being-barefoot-healthy\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/is-being-barefoot-healthy\/\">going barefoot<\/a> around the house can actually cause more harm than good. \u201cBarefoot walking can be a source of pain for many people,\u201d says\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.drannesharkey.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.drannesharkey.com\/\">Dr. Anne Sharkey<\/a>, DPM, a podiatrist at the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.northaustinfeet.com\/bio\/anne-sharkey.cfm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.northaustinfeet.com\/bio\/anne-sharkey.cfm\">North Austin Foot &amp; Ankle Institute<\/a>. Additionally, she cautions that \u201cmost slippers tend to have cushioning but are lacking in support.\u201d It\u2019s important to look for slippers that take all this into account, like this Revitalign pair.<\/p>\n<p>Are these the cutest slippers on the block? Well, not necessarily. But are they packed with orthotic features to offer comfort and support? Absolutely. \u201cThese shoes combine comfort with stability, making them great for those needing orthotic support,\u201d says Sharkey. This is due to a few features in particular:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Orthotic support<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>First and foremost? Support. \u201cBy supporting the heel, midfoot and forefoot with orthotic support and cushioning, this is a great choice for a slipper,\u201d Sharkey says.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Deep heel cup<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Sharkey says that a deep heel cup provides stability by\u2014you guessed it\u2014cupping the heel. Not only does it create increased shock absorption, but \u201cit\u2019s like giving your heel a hug,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Outsole<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Sharkey likes the thicker rubber outsole of these slippers, saying that it provides good traction. I especially like that, since I have wood floors throughout my apartment and am always looking for an indoor shoe that will prevent slipping and sliding.<\/p>\n<div class=\"related-content \" style=\"\" data-module-init=\"related-content\" data-module-immediate=\"\" v-cloak=\"\">\n<div class=\"related-content__wrapper \" v-cloak=\"\" :class=\"{'is-loaded':isLoaded}\">\n<p> <span class=\"inline pr-6 text-seafoam-dark\">Related Stories<\/span> <\/p>\n<p> <related-content class=\"related-content__links\" parent-article-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/revitalign-orthotic-mule-slippers\/\" current-title=\"These Controversial Slippers Give You the Most Comfort and Support\u2014And Podiatrists Love Them\" current-image=\"revitalign-slippers.jpg\" v-on:parsely-posts-loaded=\"onPostsLoaded\" start-date=\"2023-01-18\" tag=\"div\" inline-template=\"\" url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/revitalign-orthotic-mule-slippers\/\" secret=\"w5ztterVB03LGZJLfXS0hf3EvQBuFFIWew9hmVQxthU\" apikey=\"wellandgood.com\" limit=\"3\"> <\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"related-content__card mb-[10px] sm:mb-[20px]\" :class=\"{'related-content__card--full':posts.length === 1}\" v-for=\"(post, key) in posts\"> <a v-on:click.prevent=\"trackLinkGA($event, key)\" :href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/revitalign-orthotic-mule-slippers\/post.url\" data-url-source=\"related-content\" class=\"related-content__link\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"\"> <\/p>\n<div class=\"related-content__card--image bg-tan\" :style=\"{ backgroundImage: 'url(' + post.image_url + ')' }\"> <img :src=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/revitalign-orthotic-mule-slippers\/post.image_url\" :alt=\"post.title\"\/> <\/div>\n<p> <\/a>  <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <\/related-content> <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h3><strong>Metatarsal Pad<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The metatarsal is the part of the foot that includes the bones between the ankle and toes. These slippers feature a metatarsal pad that Sharkey says will help add cushion to the ball of the foot.<\/p>\n<p>All of these supportive features already make these slippers a surefire choice for a comfortable house shoe. Seven different colors, including bright turquoise, rich burgundy, pastel yellow, and rose pink, mean you can walk for miles in surefire style (yes, style). Plus, they\u2019re available in sizes 5-12, including half sizes and wide widths. The all-over perforated detailing, subtle square toe, and open back heel finish off the look.<\/p>\n<p>Are these Revitalign slippers as fashion-forward as my old Manolos? Definitely not. But will they bring much-needed comfort to my still-aching ankle and heel after a long day? It is decidedly so.<\/p>\n<div class=\"disclaimers__after_content mb-[18px] mt-[16px] pt-[16px]\">\n<div class=\"outline-earmark relative mt-[8px] pt-[10px] pl-[20px]\">\n<p>\n            Our editors independently select these products.
