Does anyone know of any good nursing shoes? My legs sometimes hurt after standing on them all day, so I would like to get some that would help with that as much as possible.
Thanks!

Hey Alie,
I have seen threads on this before. Go down to the search button and enter "shoes". This should be the info you are looking for.:)

Yeah, we've talked about this before. But, I have Skechers and also Merrells. Both are great. Depends on how much money you have to spend.

i have a pair of those "anywear clogs." they're very comfortable and they come in about 15 different colors in some catalogs. i've seen them run from 35-39 dollars a pair. check the website tafford.com ... i think this is one of the catalogs where they sell many different colors if you're interested in something different than white.

Well, I LOVE my Air Jordans. They are mids, which is shorter than a high top, but give much support. They also have an elastic band around the foot that gives much support.
Sister works at Eastbay (footlocker) so I get a huge discount, and usually buy 3 or 4 pair at a time, so I have extras.
Best shoe in the business, in my opinion.
I would always go with a track or running shoe, never again will I buy nursing shoes.

I wear Nikewalks...I also have Rebock DMX walkers....to me, these are the best shoes in the bunch. I will never buy any other kind to wear.
I work 12 hour days and literally walk my rear off....I have FM and OA from head to toe...I can be on my feet for 12-15 hours and NOT hurt!
You have to find the 'right' one for you and stick with it.....for me, the walking shoe is my feets best friend!

I wear Rockers. They are specially designed to make you walk correctly. they take a little time to get use to because they are not a flat sole. They have a little "rocker" in the middle of the sole. You can find them in several uniform cataloges.

I love my New Balance 879's. My feet still feel great after a 12-hr. clinical rotation!!!
