What type of shoes do you wear to prevent corns from forming?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Proper fitting: You need to wear shoes that are wide enough at the toes that they do not pinch you toes together. Open toe shoes would also be an option.

Corn: However , if the toe is too contracted shoes won't help all that much , if at all. See your podiatrist for an exam and recommendation.
