What's the most comfortable shoe in your closet?

[Anonymous]

I'm tired of cute shoes that hurt my feet, and I'd love to find some comfortable shoes that actually look good too. Sneakers, flats, sandals - I'm open to styles but would love to hear what brands you own that are truly comfortable.

Have a cute pair of Dr Scholls flats in cream/gold stripe, super comfy. For sandals, I have several leather pairs from boc by Born.

Hands down, sneaks. Running shoes with orthotics are the best.

Oh, Saucony works well for me. But Brooks are bad either.

OP here - any orthotics recommendations? I've never tried any.

I just put on a new pair of Saucony today and had a LOT of walking to do today. By the time I got home at 6pm I had horribly painful blisters on the back of each heel and my calves are burning. The idea of putting these back on again makes me want to cry, as does the thought of never wearing such cute sneakers again, as does having wasted money on shoes I am not sure I'll be able to wear ever again.

I guess it depends on what your feet issues are. For normal shoes I like Clark's a lot.

However I've recently discovered Orthaheel shoes that a made especially for those with pronation issues and I love them! They don't all have the same amount of arch support so I've had to try a few, but the ones that fit well I can walk all day in.

My Converse, Sam Edelman wedges and Born clogs are the most comfortable shoes to me.

Mephisto Petras: $$$, but heaven to walk in and pretty stylish.

Mephisto sandals.

I had my orthotics custom made. With insurance it was only around $300, which is cheap considering how much use I get out of them.

I thought you're gradually supposed to break new shoes in...so maybe if you try them again, for a shorter time, the shoe won't rip your feet apart. Saucony's also have a really firm sole--that can take some getting used to.
