Ridiculously comfortable black shoes

[Blonzer]

Neither stylish nor beautiful I suspect - starting a new job soon which will involve wearing a uniform trousers/skirt and I have to wear black shoes (absolutely no trainers or crocs). There'll be a lot of standing and walking around.

Any suggestions?

I have these but they have shot up in price

For conferences and all day events I wear Geox girl's school shoes. Leather, no VAT and they go up to size 39 so you don't need super tiny feet.

I have wide feet, bunions, long claw toes. I only wear Hotter.

Clarks unloop. By far the comfiest I’ve found.

I used to work in retail so in my feet all day, winters were spent wearing DMs but in the summer I wore Crocs Brooklyn Ballet Flats and they were an absolute treat for my feet. They have the Crocs comfort but look like a ballet flat. I bought a pair recently to go with the dresses I wear for my office job and have had no end of compliments about them. They're twice the price they used to be, though.

I bought these and they are super comfortable!

I do know that they are a bit naff but honestly they are like slippers, they are also very quiet. No squeaks just silent.

I wonder why companies ban trainers. I swear that smart black trainers are smarter than some of the ugly so-called smart, comfortable shoes that are around.

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. Bonus: they are washable.

Depends on your privilege I guess - I’m a single Mum on minimum wage so I consider them a bit pricey for my budget if not in the sale.

I did say Hotter seem to last well though (and better then Ecco which are comfortable too and a similar price point but don’t seem to last as long in my experience plus they don’t have such a variety of width fittings and half sizes).

ECCO are much better quality than Hotter, I've had mine for 5 years and they still look new. Worn in health care setting.
Mind you they do tend to cost more than Hotter.

What's your budget? This brand is amazing for confort (I buy my slippers here) and this flats look nice: https://www.vionicshoes.co.uk/women/flats/willa-flat.html?color=1150

However they are $$$

Interesting- they (and the website) look a bit like Naturaliser brand

I love Vivaia ballet flats - they're machine washable too. They come in lots of different tie shapes. My favourite is the square toed Margot Mary Jane. I also love the round toe Claire.

Ooh me too! What's your favourite pair? What's on your wish list?

£130 for plastic shoes, not a chance I’d be paying that.

I confess that I do enjoy the comfort of a performance sandal. These are my latest 🤣

Me too. I love that the colour is 'Marmalade'

Comfy and the colour description is acurate. My last pair were yellow and there were similar gold toned ones.

That website is a treasure trove of comfy shoes @Denimrules !!

I'm a size 6, @Upcyled my favourites are a pair of dark green suedes with lilac laces..I'd like the leopard print pair! I have ridiculous wide feet and they actually fit me.. I always like the lighter colours but the problem is I am clumsy and messy and they'd not stay light. Lighter ones tend to be in suede.

The Clarks ones were all the rage in the 80s at school - we used to call them banana boots 🙄
Those and Clarks polyvelts were very popular.

I did buy a pair of these when I needed to wear a uniform and they are undeniably comfortable

Look into barefoot shoes… they’re foot shaped so inherently comfortable. I have a pair of begreater ankle boots that I live in in winter, and looking to now invest in some Shapen Peony’s for wearing in summer.

I have a pair of Mary Jane Walkers from Vivaia.

They may be entirely the wrong kind of shoe as they are very dainty but they are ridiculously comfortable.

Clark’s funny dream are the most comfy shoes i own . I bought mine of vinted

I thought the price for vivaia was extreme but got them about half price in the sale.

they are by far most. comfortable shoes I ever add.
