Does it exist?
Needs to be relatively smart to wear with work trousers but comfy enough for 20min walk to and from station and wearing all day/active job.
Thanks for any suggestions Smile

These www.marksandspencer.com/leather-low-heel-bow-boat-shoes/p/p22483705?image=SD_01_T02_8294_VS_X_EC_90&color=TAN&prevPage=srp
They were tight at first the first few wears but now fit great. I can comfortably walk miles in them and run too.

I imagine there might be, or you wouldn't have posted, but is there a reason you can't just change your shoes?

TigerBreadAddict · 11/07/2019 07:53

Thanks. @Dogsorlogs I’ll see if I can try on the m&s loafers. I think the boat shoes are too flimsy, thanks though @

@Pinkyyy I do change currently but it’s a bit of a PITA and sometimes I have to walk 25 mins between sites and have the faff of changing/carrying shoes

I love the Clarks Hamble Oak - I have them in a wide fit and they’re really comfortable

These really aren't the most attractive shoe, but they honestly feel so comfortable. I was in a similar position a couple of years ago where I needed something comfortable but wearable to work and they were a dream.

I find M&S shoes really comfortable.

Hopefullysmart · 11/07/2019 10:58

I have these but unfortunately they're out of stock now but may be worth googling "brogue cleated sole" to see if anything similar comes up. (That's how I found this pic).

For actual heavenly comfort I’d go for something from Fitflop. They have a great sale on at the moment — Well worth the money even at full price but definitely value for money with % off.

I have 7 pairs atm and have probably had about 20 altogether (I used to suffer with plantar fasciitis and they were the only shoes that truly felt good on my heels) and I would highly recommend them.

Hopefullysmart · 11/07/2019 12:06

I've just seen another pair...

I bought some penny loafers from GH Bass recently and the leather is so soft and comfy, they are like wearing gloves on your feet.

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 11/07/2019 13:30

Geox had some and now have a sale on.

TigerBreadAddict · 11/07/2019 23:09

Thank you for all the recommendations. I ordered these today, I’ll let you know what I think when they arrive! www.fitflop.com/uk/en/shop/sneakerloafer-fringey-patent-sneakerloafers-p-J83#001

They look great, I hope you love them!

CountFosco · 11/07/2019 23:36

I have those in blue, bought them a few years ago and still look good as new.

El0die · 12/07/2019 05:03

I'm too late! Was going to suggest these- - also Fitflop so you've probably seen and rejected them anyway. Also in gold.
