Unfortunately, if they have no backs, I walk out of them because I can’t feel them. My feet get cold, but I have to actually touch them with my hands to know that.
I’m probably more aware of my feet than most people, because I’ve cut them quite badly in the past, before I realized the sensation was going.
There are times, of course, when partial feeling comes back, but not in all areas, and not for long. So I “deal with it.” And buy shoes with sling backs or laces, or even boots.

Have you tried Crocs? I know they are the ugliest shoe known to man but they do protect your toes.
