Steel-toe slippers

Help for chronic toe-stubbers

(+2)

My sister is walks really fast, and she's always stubbing her toes on the furniture. A pair of steel-toed slippers for wearing around the house would solve this problem. The slippers would also need to have a cushiony coating on the outside to prevent dents in the furniture.

Alternatively, tie a piece of elastic between her slippers (ever have those mittens?) - this will prevent her from striding about the place, and reduce her speed to one at which furniture is more easily evaded.

How is she on crack pavers and such?

I'm thinking a pair of contact lenses might help.

They get cold in the winter, too. Slippers are supposed to keep your feet warm.
