Most comfortable casual/walking shoe that isn't ugly, tacky, or outdated?

What have YOU been wearing?

Get a pair of Eccos

Bought me some Vans, from the Vans Outlet Store. Look good and feel good, though I did put in my orthodic inserts. Not sure how comfy they'd be without them.

Same thing I wear every day: Beach sandals.

 

[lokiju]

Newbalance or Nike

What shoe isn't a walking shoe? Do they make shoes that you can't walk in?

 

[dolph]

if cost isn't an issue, go for mephistos.

 

[TitanDiddly]

Get some Gel inserts.

Born shoes are my favorites nowadays. They are incredibly comfortable, available in a variety of attractive styles, and cost a fraction of what I regard as comparable shoes (Mephistos, for example).

 

[Ranger X]

Doc Martens

 

[MrCodeDude]

Adio Andersons.

hm. not strictly a walking shoe, possibly outdated (though I'd argue timeless?) .. Clark's Wallabees for a moccasin, or the desert trek for an oxford?

The cushioning in basketball shoes (as an example) is too stiff for walking for longer periods of time. It's great for supporting the foot during the rigorous footwork of basketball, but you can get sore feet after a while.

All great recommendations - Ecco, Born, Mephistos.

My wife's family is known to fit people with cement shoes.

I wear one of my pairs of Sketchers almost daily.

People say the SAS shoe wear is the best...

I wear either Adidas shoes, Birkenstocks or Nikes.

I second that. I have Ecco Walkathons and they feel really great.
