Esp if you have wide feet


I have wide feet -not OP - and want to like these but they all seem so ugly to me.


Which brands for wide feet are acceptable to you?

Hoka Bondi. They're not beautiful, but I no longer have plantar fasciitis since I have been wearing these sneakers.

Also, Bombas socks. Expensive but wear forever. Arch support built in.

Oh whoops… You don’t like Danskos! I do, but everybody has different feet.

Omg, Danskos! Do manynurses still wear these? We all wore them when I worked as a nurse 15-20 yrs ago. I rolled my ankles in them ALL the time. It’s a miracle I never broke anything.


I can agree. I am a teacher who’s on my feet all day, and I either wear sneakers or Danskos. I am so glad things are more casual and nobody cares about us wearing sneakers anymore!

I have a wide toe box so Altra has been great for me.

OP here. I went to a running store near me (not in the DC area anymore). They recommended the Brooks Glycerin.

I recommend looking up road runners or the pr running store. They will analyze your feet and suggest the best shoes for you.

I love my Brooks Ghosts. I replace the insole with pink Superfeet one.

Go to a running store. There used to be one in Falls Church near the Trader Joe’s. No one can suggest a good shoe because we don’t know if you pronate, supinate, etc.
