French Sole are excellent quality and last far longer than cheaper brands, ime.

Repetto are also beautifully made but can be expensive, depending on the style. I bought my last pair in the Toast sale for £75 but they are stunning - very soft and comfortable.

Plimsoles - try Bensimon. Ignore the foul chocolate brown pair - the white and beige are far nicer . You can usually find them in blues and other colours too. However, I saw some really nice basic white plimsoles in Top Shop yesterday but didn't notice the price.

I got these last week and they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned

They have a bumpy rubber sole, so you feel like you're wearing trainers, but then look down and they look lovely!

A winning combination, comfort and beauty

For plimsolls, nothing beats Converse All Stars imho. Available in about a million colours.

here.

Been wearing them for years. Currently have 2 colours, they were they only shoes that were comfy last summer when i was third trimester pg.

Doh! Yes, Converse of course Never think of them as plimsolls though!

The best ones i have seen are on www.plimcity.co.uk

They have a great selection of colours, styles and sizes!

I have bought a few pairs from there, they are sooo comfy and stylish!
