Width & Comfort: These are the two things bunion suffers have to look for when seeking shoes. Accommodation of the deformity with shoes that are wide enough will be comfortable. There are a number of great shoe manufacturers that make styles that achieve this based on your style preferences.

Hard to find: All depends on what you consider cute? The less pressure on the bone prominence, the more comfortable. If they are not comfortable when you first try them on, don't buy them. You may want to consider correcting them. Discuss with your podiatrist. Dr l.

Mostly none: There are two absolutes I have learned in life: food- if it tastes really good, don't eat too much of it, and shoes- if it is cute and omg it is not good for your feet, let alone when bunions are present. Unfortunately, there is an inverse relationship in shoe style and comfort in the eyes of most women. Sorry!

Taryn rose: If you have the $$, loon at taryn rose shoes and others. They are designed by an orthopaedic surgeon and are kinder to your feet but still stylish. However, depending on the severity of your bunions, they still might not work for you.
