I love my mules but...some are harder than others to keep on your feet, especially on stairs, if that is an issue for you. And I almost never wear them with socks for that reason.

Depends on the lining. I have never had a problem with socks.
I vote for the Danskos, but they are like platform shoes, so if you're unstable it may not work. It is, however the best shoe made and very easy to slip on without having to reach down to adjust. I also like Birkenstocks, and Addidas Sliders for summer casual wear. For more dressy, or I have many kitty-healed mules for when I dress up a little, which is often.
Just use a pair of regular shoes with the laces left loose but tied in a permanent knot.
thats what im doing now with a pair of Stan Smith running shoes, problem is they are not secure and they flop a lot when im walking, they also have the problem of needing a shoe horn to put on.
I have a pair of slip on Skechers that are both soft and supportive.
I can’t wear mules, you have to hold them on your feet with your toes (like flip flops and Birkenstocks) and it makes my feet ache. A heel strap or heel coverage is important for foot support.

Mules are easy to slip on and off your feet. And that’s the problem: “With any type of slide that doesn’t have a back, your toes over-grip in order to keep that shoe from flying off your foot,” says Dr. Jacqueline Sutera, a Midtown-based doctor of podiatric medicine and surgery. “You’re overusing those muscles that are not intended to be used.”
For some one with mobility issues,obviously no laces and something that can be slipped into preferrably without the need of a shoe horn, i tried some Sketchers but they were too hard and i was getting cramps trying to put them on any ideas?
Thanks.
See if you can get a pair of the Easy Spirit Traveltime comfy shoes that look like sneakers but have no ties and hardly any 'heel'. I must have 6 pairs of them, reasonably priced too. I buy a lot of shoes from www.Zappos.com They have a great website and great service. You will have them in less than 3 days.

Or better, buy stretch laces that don’t require tying.
