I need your assistance. Some friends mentioned a brand of shoe that is real comfortable,

[raccoon]

about $80 pair. It was a 2-syllable name, I remember that. Something like Randall. Can anyone identify this brand?

[dawg day]

1. Rockport?

[pansypoo53219]

2. i gave up shoes in 2000 + my feet feel great.

[True Blue American]

3. I prefer

Clark. I have many pairs. Not one is uncomfortable. Reasonable prices,too.

Gym shoes, Sketchers. You can even get those that look dressy.

[pnwest]

5. Just got my first pair of Clarks last year,

LOVE them for quality, comfort and yes - sone are quite stylish!

[True Blue American]

7. We have an outlet

But you can get them on sale at Kohl’s or Penney’s.

I love shoes and they have replaced the other name brands for me. I once worked across the aisle from a shoe department. Bad mistake for me.

[lapfog_1]

27. i have a 5 year supply left of my favorite Clarks

I found out that about 10 years ago they were going to stop making my favorite shoe (of which I already owned about 4 pairs). They are the only ones that I've found that fit my short wide feet. When I heard they were going to stop making my shoe (boat shoe)... I bought another 5 pairs... I have 2 left in a boxes unopened.

31. Smart!

[True Blue American]

4. Beware of the gravel or hot

Blacktop. i love barefoot.

[pansypoo53219]

17. hot is bad. cold getting better. only danish gravel. that shit is sharp.

[True Blue American]

18. LOL

[3Hotdogs]

6. Not type of shoe you were asking about, but New Balance are recommended by

my podiatrist.

[True Blue American]

8. New Balance are great if you have foot problems.

[dewsgirl]

9. New Balance have been my go to shoe since 1997 when I was 20, still the best imo.

[lillypaddle]

10. I don't know about that particular brand, BUT

Footsmart.com is a great place to find comfortable shoes that support your arches, and look fairly stylish. Good brands that last a long time. I'm still wearing a pair of "flip flops" that I bought 5 years ago. Pricey, but worth it.

11. Get Birkenstocks, they're awesome

And the Soft Footbed models are comfy right out of the box. People with neuropathy (agonizing pain), knee surgeries, foot problems, sore backs - all are helped by Birkenstocks. I am amazed at how good I feel now. I've only been a Birki wearer for a month but I've never been happier!

On one shoe selling website, they have 1000's of reviews. When reading up on Birkenstocks, the reviewers were always asked what other brands they recommend: their answer was frequently Teva and Clarks (90%, of the time).

Good luck on your comfort search!

22. Love Birkenstocks

Have been wearing them for probably 40 years.

At this point, they are the only shoes I can wear.

[OregonBlue]

12. Merrill? My whole family wears them. We get them at places

like famous footwear and never havento break them in.

[raccoon]

16. I believe that is it! Thanks, everyone, for your input. nt

[japple]

25. I love Merrell shoes, too. My first pair was for work in hosp. OR. Had to

have non-slip soles, solid top (no holes, like Crocs) and something I could walk around in all day long. They have the greatest foot support I've ever worn. Working part time, I wore that pair of shoes for about 5 years and, when I retired, they were my daily around-the-farm footwear. Then, my cat, Lola, peed in them and I had to throw them away. Nothing I tried could rid those shoes of the smell of cat pee. I still mourn for those shoes every day. Merrell doesn't make that model now and though I have bought the one that replaced it, it is not quite as perfect as the original pair.

[OregonBlue]

29. Years ago I was on my way to Asia for a months long trip and I bought a pair of

Merrill sandals the night before I left and wore them, walking miles and miles every day, with nary a blister. Since they do change styles, when I got back, I went on ebay and found 2 pairs of the very same shoe for less than I paid originally. I wear them almost every day in the summer. Love them.

[WhiteTara]

13. Atoms will be my next

pair of shoes. They are a bit pricey (which is why I don't have mine right now) but they fit your foot (one foot is larger than the other, you know,) never need to be tied again (somehow) and they are made to be worn daily. @WearAtoms on twitter and I'm sure they have a website.

14. As a diabetic, Medicare pays for my shoes

Diabetics are at risk for foot injuries requiring amputation.
I can get one pair of shoes each year (but get ta pair about every three years) by prescription from my podiatrist
from a place that supplies orthotic & prosthetic equipment.

[Bayard]

15. I have totally flat feet

Must have good support. I've found the only thing that really works are good orthotics. In any shoe.

[True Blue American]

19. A frienas that problem

New Balance is her choice.

I have some neuropathy, no pain.. thus my pool exercises. Most Insurance companies pay for silvr Sneakers, a real blessing.

20. Mine are SAS,

hand-made in the U.S.

[raccoon]

21. I like SAS too, the Free times shoe and the tennis shoes. nt

[Shrike47]

26. Me, too. SAS shoes wear like iron, too.

23. I spotted this brand in Yankee Magazine the other day.

They look really comfortable.

[klook]

24. Hitchcock

sells shoes for men & women that are really comfortable. They specialize in wide sizes that are hard to find elsewhere. They sell shoes under their own moniker, as well as Skechers, New Balance (which I’ve been boycotting since I found out their CEO is a Trump supporter), Hush Puppies, Dunham, Propet, Easy B, Rockport, Nunn Bush, Drew, et al.

All their business is mail order. As a new customer, you’ll be asked to fill out a questionnaire— including the outlines of your feet. In 20+ years of buying from them, I’ve had to return maybe 2 pairs.

28. Interesting. I will check out this company.

I swear by my Drew casual shoe.

[Karadeniz]

30. I'll bet it was Rockport. My husband orders them...has for years.

[babylonsister]

32. Sketchers. Lots of styles, including slip-ons, very comfy. nt

[Totally Tunsie]

33. Could it be Rothy's?

They're priced a bit higher than what you mentioned, but look very comfortable and they're washable!

34. It was Merrell's, but I will look into those.

It was Merrell’s, but I will look into those.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions!
