I'm going on a city break that is going to involve lots and lots of walking
I need to buy new trainers anyhow so thought I would invest in the comfiest ones I can find, but it's a minefield out there
I've previously suffered with Plantar fasciitis but not at the moment... I think my feet are a bit flat Shock

Can anyone recommend a brand that will make me feel like I'm walking on a cloud for the entire day?
I currently have Sketchers but wouldn't mind trying a different brand
Thank you

Skechers! Stay with them
Heard hotters are supposed to be good too

I stick to proper running trainers to walk in, supportive, lots of cushioning etc. I tend to wear Nike Pegasus I think for my 'fashion' proper trainers (for actual exercise I wear ASICS ). I have a lot of trainers 😂. For fashion, but not walking, I favour Adidas Stan Smith/Superstars.

I don't think you can beat Sketchers!

Don't know about trainers but I do know about plantar fasciitis. I've just got some fitflop sandals and they are wonderful. I got men's as I've big feet, but you can also get women's with straps that hold them onto your feet securely.

Hotter shoes and sandals. Very comfortable, come in half sizes and different widths. They've got a sale on at present, as well.

When I got plantar fasciitis my podiatrist recommended fit flop sandals, and they are a game changer. Those and some Sketchers and you are good to go anywhere!

I have new balance trainers, bit like sketchers but (I think) a bit more fashionable. Knitted top and lightweight sole. I had a google and couldn't find the exact same ones but similar to these, 15% off for new customers.

Fitflop. Without a doubt.

I really struggle to find shoes or trainer that don't rub.
I've tried everything.
But I must say that THESE HERE seem to be OK. They don't rub and they are comfy.
I have some sketchers that rub my heels.
