Solz customer review


Some more encouraging feedback



Morning – thought you’d like to know I love my solz house shoes! And, so does my


son so I have just ordered 3 more pairs – for my husband and son and a merino pair


for me. The cotton ones are fantastic for our Cairns ‘winters’ but we’re planning a


real winter holiday so I thought I’d get the merino wool ones to take with me. I’m


thrilled to be buying something that’s designed and made in Australia!

Thanks
Kerry.

Some recent feedback


BTW - my mum who  has trouble with swelling feet absolutely swears by your house shoes and refuses to wear anything else. She has them in every colour and loves them. I thought the woolly ones would be great for her for winter.
Thanks again
Deb



I have been wearing the cotton ones and they are great so light but find that the

under sole is a cold so have inserted innersoles I think its time to upgrade to the merino ones for winter

Thanks for a great product
Many thanks melinda

Solz-ology Pt3 - Reflexology 101

The ancients were first to respect to the feet and develop the whole body therapy of reflexology. It is a practice that has come in and out of vogue over the centuries with most of us practicing it absent-mindedly when rubbing sore feet after a hard day. Of course if you have someone to rub them for you even better.

\

So what is it?
Reflexology is the practice of applying pressure to the feet and hands utilizing specific thumb, finger and hand techniques without the use of oil, cream or lotion based on a system of zones and reflex areas that reflect an image of the body on the feet and hands with a premise that such work effects a physical change in the body.

It is thought that you can improve the health of the bodys different organs by applying pressure to different zones of the foot.
Solz reccomends that feet get a damn good rub every now  to keep them happy and then on with some comfy slippers.
Happy feet = Happy body

Solz-ology Pt.2 - The wise words of Grandma

My Grandmother always said you can tell a lot about a man by his feet - what he does or doesn't wear on them. How clean and cared for are they? She also had a similar theory about hands but drew a different set of conclusions about them.
Wise words that I think applies to both genders. The way we treat out beloved feet do say something about us, but just what?
Have you ever been astonished  to see a beautifully dressed woman only to look down to see unkempt tootsies! huh!!!  Why forget the feet? Solz just doesn't get it

 

Heres what foot expert Jane Sheehan has to say - believe it at your peril

Love by the pinky toe
Forget the size of his wallet, look at his (or her) feet if you want real clues about whether the relationship will work out.
If your potential beau keeps his feet covered, like Brad Pitt, be warned that he’s a very private person
“Brad even swims in socks! He doesn’t want you to know all about him. His private life is just that – private. Respect that and you’ll get on fine.”
If you draw a line across a person’s toes and all the toes sit on the straight line, you’ll find a perfectionist, she says.
“They like doing things from start to finish, in the right order, and they hate being interrupted when they are in the middle of something.
If they have very big toe pads then they will be a very deep thinker too.”
Want to know if he or she is the sensitive type who won’t feel like a sissy crying at a sad movie?
Look at the toe next to the big toe.
“If it’s narrow at the base, widening at the tip of the toe, then they are most definitely a drama queen!”
Other hints you can apply to finding the perfect partner: long feet suggest they will be the life of the party, while square tips of toes indicate bluntness and a lack of diplomacy.
What your feet say
Corns and calluses, ingrown toenails and even fungal infections can all be interpreted, according to Sheehan.
“Bunions are common on feet where the person is doing too much for others and not enough for themselves,” she says.
An ingrown toenail can show a person who “feels threatened or vulnerable”.
Ready to decode yourself?
Take a long, hard look at your feet.
• Wide feet show a person who is very hard-working, says Sheehan.
“They are constantly doing things and find it very difficult to sit down and do nothing.”
• Narrow feet are what Sheehan calls a “princess” foot!
 “You are much happier sitting back and letting others run around after you.”
• An ingrowing toenail signals a deep need to protect ideas, she says.
• Athlete’s foot shows a tendency to “let things get under your skin”.
• Calluses are protection against the outside world, or concealing true emotions from yourself, says Sheehan, and corns are similar, but relate to a specific issue.
• High arches are commonly found on people with strong inner resources.
“You enjoy spending time on your own.”
