NWR: best shoes for standing on your feet

Barbiiieee

I have a new job where I'm standing on my feet constantly, and my feet have been hurting! I know its because I've been wearing the wrong shoes, but I was hoping for some advice. I've been wearing ballet flats or my low cut Converse All Stars... and they just aren't cutting it.

I can wear anything so long as it is closed toed and heel. Casual sneakers are perfectly fine (our dress code is jeans and a collared shirt, pretty casual).

I have thought of wearing a running type shoe, but I really hate the way they look outside of a gym, so even though my job is chasing around school children, I'd rather not wear those. I also find my feet feel really crammed when I try to stuff insoles into my All Stars.

Do any of you have any reccomendations for a cute, slim line sneaker type shoe for high arched feet?

[QUOTE]I'm a Nurse's Aide and a big fan of Asics. And I've actually gotten numerous compliments on them because they're hot pink. I'm also like you though and hate the running shoes look, but for comfort, its worth the sacrifice.

<div>I think I have the same pair- the hot pink is fun! I am a big believer in New Balance (they make a lot of cute sneakers that don't make you look like an AARP member. I worked at an animal shelter and these were my go-to, durable footwear the whole time. Now I work in a preschool and since my last pair of NB died,  I've alternated between my Asics and a pair of Rykas that really haven't impressed me all that much. </div>
