Hellobee Boards

I have a pair of sketchers that I love. I stole them from my mom. They aren't the most stylish though so I've been looking to replace them, but I could wear them all day without issue.

I have such bad luck with shoes, sometimes I feel like my feet are allergic to shoes. But I love these sketchers.

In the fall, I usually live in Merrell boots. I think the ones I have are discontinued (Tetra strap tall boots) but they have similar ones every year in both tall and short heights. They have a rubber sole and are as comfy as sneakers to me.

My Sperrys are super comfortable. I got mine on sale at DSW a couple years ago. They're an older style and super cushioned (but also a little uglier than some of the new styles with little padding). My other most comfy shoes are Natives and Teva athletic sandals, but those aren't great if you're wearing real clothes instead of yoga pants every day.

There are shoes made by a Spanish company called El Naturalista and while some of they are way out there for my taste, some are much more normal looking. They are pricey, but you can sometimes catch sales and I have found every single pair that I own is like walking on a cloud. I have some booties, and flats, and my husband has a few pairs as well. We love them!

Another vote for Merrells. They're just amazing!

For me, hardly anything works as well as a sneaker so with leggings and dresses lately I've been wearing the more low-profile / not really gym shoes sneakers like Nike Internationalists or New Balance 420s. They might not look right with maxi dresses but are really cute with knee length dresses or leggings !

I wore my Frye boots nearly every day in the fall for both pregnancies (one November and one December baby).

I can wear my Toms for hours. I wore them on a recent trip which included a LOT of walking and no issues.

@Foodnerd81: while I do love toms, I have to say I wouldn't consider the, my most comfortable shoe, especially for a lot of walking and while pregnant. They have no arch support, so,you definitely feel it if you're sensitive to that.

What about a nice basic trainer? When styled correctly. They're so cute with dresses. Here are some ideas:

@Rainbow Sprinkles: sooo cute! I really want a pair of trainers, I can't decide though if I like NB, Nike, or Adidas better! And so many awesome colors.

@Mrs. Pen: I don't usually like trainers (unless for sport) but those look great, especially the Adidas ones!

@illumina: so cute!! Tell me how you like them.

@Foodnerd81: you know I've never actually worn NB either, so I'm not sure how they fit. But they tend to get good reviews? Do you have high arches?
I know I do like nikes though, but I find it harder to find their trainers styles vs general sneakers/workout shoes.

@Mrs. Pen: I'm wearing NB right now and they're ok. I think they're slightly cuter than my Nikes, but the Nikes are more comfortable. They don't have awesome arch support, but I can go shopping for a few hours, run errands, etc and be fine in these shoes. I wouldn't wear them for a day when I'd be on my feet every minute though. I think the 420s are much cuter but they have much less support.

@ShootingStar: good to know! I'm looking at the 620's, they have a narrower cut and I like that more minimalist look for a casual shoe. I'm curious about the comfort of them? For a sneaker I'm used to the comfort of my asics which provide SO much support and are incredible comfortable- but they're "big" because they're a running shoe. So I don't wear them casually, only while working out. I wonder if the asics trainers then, are as comfortable? UO sells some.
