Are Finn shoes cheaper in Germany?
 
I have been looking at Finn shoes since I have developed feet problems but they are so darn expensive. Will they be cheaper in Frankfurt? Or should I just buy them here? I realize if I don't buy them before I go, I won't have a chance to break them in. Thanks.

In Cochem, a month ago, Finn Comfort sandals were 120 Euro.

Thanks, Valtor. I have seen them for around $190 in California.

I would recommend buying a pair at one of those websites with free shipping in both directions.

I ordered a pair that looked incredibly comfortable - but positively were not. The appearance and construction could not have been more masterful, but they were just not the least bit comfortable, to me, anyway.

May I suggest an alternative, if they're available in your area? I find SAS shoes to provide excellent support, and they will take orthotics. They sell for around $100.

If you can find them, Berkmann shoes are wonderful, but they seem to have disappeared from the U.S. market. I find them on line at fusaro.com, a small operation based, I think, in Munich.
