For heels try Cole Haan's Nike Air line or maybe Stuart Weitzman depending upon the shape of your foot (SW fits me well, but I have high arches and high insteps). Please, please don't buy Merrill or the like.

Come back when you are in your 50's, and we'll talk.

I have horrible feet (thanks Dad) and I love the brand Me Too...their flats are cute and VERY comfortable!

For me, Clarks. It depends on your foot, though because Sofft are great for many people but are like some kind of horrible torture device on me.

Franco Sarto heels are surprisingly comfortable

I guess I gave up when I was about 20, then. I actually wear Danskos, Birkenstocks, and Keens, but my feet are so happy.

Stuart Weitzman is great for me. Like the PP, I also have high arches.

Me too! It was after I saw a special on TV on women who wear high heels all the time and how gross looking their feet had become.

heels: Cole Haan and Rockport (don't laugh, they get a lot of compliments, they are NOT my dad's Rockports)

flats: Ecco, Cole Haan

casual, doing a LOT of walking: Keen , Merrell

FWIW: I have a narrow, low-volume foot with high arches that are very hard to fit. I put insoles in most of my shoes, which improves the fit, including where it would cut into my Achilles.

Danskos and my lovely Attilio Giusti Leombrunis!

My Mother In Law and Sister In Law have HORRIBLE feet from always wearing heels. My MIL has a huge bunion next to her big toe and her big toe is totally starting to turn inwards towards her other toes. I think she said it started getting bad in her late 40's.
