    Ahhh, the joys of Irish feet (aka Greek feet, Morton's feet, etc.)

    Somewhere on TE there is a looooong thread about this foot type.

    It's not your foot's fault, it's that 90% of us have "Egyptian" feet, and shoes were designed for OUR feet, not yours.

    So you get bunions, bunionettes (tailor's bunions), hammer toes, etc.

    (BTW, I did talk to a biomechanist at a seminar once about Irish feet and the misery inflicted upon them by shoes. He agreed that I could become a millionaire if I were just to design running shoes for Irish feet. And he didn't know of any out on the market at the time.)
