As far I know plantar fasciitis can't be be cured as it is a falling arch. Exercises and massage therapy can help but not completely get rid of the issue. For closed shoes one can wear custom-made orthotics (which I have) but they can't be used with open sandals. In general I prefer something that has straps in the back (which rules out traditional Birkenstocks) with a (very) low heel/wedge that is easy to walk around with but dressy enough for a casual work outfit. Also moderately priced means below $100 (which would be the max. I could afford to spend).
I have multiple foot issues, and my summer go-to sandals are ECCO Yucatan. My feet actually feel better at the end of the day when I wear them. Not cheap, but well worth it. Not the most adorable shoe but not absolutely fugly either. Dillards carry them if you want to try them on first.
Good to know. I bought the one pair I've owned from Zappos. I bought a size 11 and added arch support. Wore those things to death, but could never find another pair that fit. Weird!
I've tried them on at Dillard's several times. No go.
We with temperamental feet have to find what brands work best for us. For me it is a constant search.
Can any of these be purchased from an actual store where one can try them on first?
You can try Nordstrom. I've had better luck there than anywhere, but I have such an odd foot, finding my size is a crapshoot, so I buy from Zappos' for the free shipping both ways. Just buy a cheapy toss rug if you don't have one so you don't ruin the bottoms of the shoes when you try them on.

Dillards and Nordstrom don't exist in my area. Any other suggestions?
