What are the best hiking shoes for people with bunions?
I have what is essentially a bunion on my right foot. I say essentially bc it's actually a calcium deposit on my foot that is in the same place as where a bunion would be. I need to have surgery and a pin inserted into my foot but that's another story...I have bad pain if I wear shoes so for the most part I'm in flip flops or sandals 90% of the time. Thank God I live in GA and we don't have much of a winter. So my question is...I'm starting to hike with my husband but I need a shoe that won't hurt my foot. Anyone have any suggestions on shoes? I have tried on those "sandal" hiking shoes and they seem to be my best option. If anyone out there has a similar problem or has found a miracle shoe..I'd love to know about it! Also....just in case someone wants to suggest the "over-the-counter" remedies...those won't work for me because I don't really have a bunion..just a calcium deposit (knot) in the same location. Thanks for your help!! :)

My wife likes the support she gets from her Merrell Chameleon III Ventilator GTX (men's size 10). Yeah, in addition to her bunions she has a big wide foot. And if she sees this, my butt will likely be wearing a significant footprint.
