who can recommend a comfy pair of shoes

[ellsworth81]

i think the title and such explains it all.
i've heard of companies that customize shoes and stuff to your foot... but dunno any specific companies. help is greatly appreciated! :wink:

gym shoes - Nike Air Maxes
dress shoes - Birkenstock dress shoes, they look like their the pain-inducing dress shoes, but they must be comfortable... but they are mad expensive

all around casual- Birkenstock clogs, I wear these all the time and only wear other shoes when I have no choice.

Eh...
- Are you male or female?
- Are you talking about dress shoes, casual shoes, sports shoes, or all of them?
- How much do you want to spend?
- Are you just looking for shoes that are "comfortable," or ones that are custom, or orthopedic shoes?
- Do you have hard-to-fit feet?

Male.

All three.

I dunno. upwards of $200 a pair. I'm treating these as investments, as opposed to previous shoe purchases.

Custom, orthopedic shoes? I didn't realize they exist. But I suppose I wouldn't mind going that right.

Hard-to-fit-feet... I'm not quite sure. My feet are almost the same in size ... one is slightly larger. Is there someway to get that measured or whatever? My shoe knowledge is very limited.

Any chance you could recommend any specific styles/name of Air Maxes or Birkenstock dress shoes?

The Air Maxes I like tend to be the more expensive air maxes with the air pockets covering almost the entire sole or with the big fat air pocket in the heel. $130+

As for the dressy Birkenstocks, I just saw them when I got my clogs, they caught my eye, but I really didn't look too much into it. There should be a Birkenstock shop in a mall near you. The best thing would be to look/try them out.

ah. if you're looking for an investment i really don't have a suggestion.

i bought a pair of lakai skate shoes that have kept my feet really happy. probably happier than other skate shoes that i have had in the past.

i buy my dad ferragamos and bally's for nice leather dress shoes.

he likes wearing rockports with chinos and such. rockports are slip resistant which is pretty cool. i think younger men (20's-30's) should try the brand camper. they have trendier styles.

for athletic shoes, he wears new balances. my ex wore old school adidas and asics.

where's the shoes for boys? what do you suggest? i want to look sexy, but not too sexy.

gosh, these shoes were meant for me not to fuck up or contort my feet anymore than they are now. i suppose looks is a close second in terms of concerns
