Best shoe to wear in nursing school for clinical and after?

I just finished up school in July but I think your feet are going to hurt no matter what you do I jut bought a good pair of new balance walking shoes, but we also had a strict dress code for clinical.

What seems to be the most popular shoe in hospitals around here are Danskos. I ended up buying a pair of Sanitas because the Danskos hurt my feet. http://www.sanitaclogs.com/global/

Many people around here wear Danskos and love them. I think I bought a bit too small and they hurt my feet so I went with Sanitas. http://www.sanitaclogs.com/global/

I've never bought up because my feet don't usually swell. With the Sanitas, I read reviews and went a 1/2 size up because many said they ran small.As far as colors, whatever you like and will match your uniform. I went with navy since my pants are navy. Lots of people get fun patterns.

Different shoes work better for different people (because there is so much variation among feet). Most schools have a fairly strict dress code, so don't buy anything without being sure that it meets your school's requirements. Most nursing schools require a solid white shoe, in leather (or synthetic leather), not fabric (so fabric sneakers are out). Most also require a closed toe and heel (so clogs would be out in that case). Crocs are popular (I find them extremely comfortable), and they make lots of styles other than the ubiquitous clogs.

When I was in school, I was v. happy with SAS shoes, and I have also been happy with New Balance in the past (nowadays, I only wear Crocs ).

I didn't buy mine too big. I had a pair of Reebox and a pair of Nikes. I am going back to school next month and will probably buy something else but not sure what else yet. Check with your school's clinical dress code because most enforce a certain color and some may be particular about style as well. Ours had to be ALL WHITE and rubber soled and that was the only specification.

Sketchers Go-Walk shoes. HEAVENLY. New Balance tennis shoes still let my feet hurt, but after running back and forth all day, the go-walk shoes help my feet stay comfortable. I wish I had known about them during school.
