The best shoes for clinicals?

Nurses Uniform/Gear

Hi all! I'm sure this is a question that's been asked a million times, but I haven't been able to find the info I need. I'm about to start a 15 month accelerated BSN program in a few weeks and need to find some white shoes to wear to my clinicals (which start immediately). My school says no clogs, no sneakers with any mesh. I've done a lot of searching, and everyone seems to recommend new balances...but they are so ugly! Are there any other good, comfy options out there?

I wear the reebox tones & 2 me they are very comfy, i also like nike shox they are comfy too especially since my feet kinda wide(to me). I say just go to a shoe store & try on different brands, walk around in them & go from there. Good Luck!

When we didn't have to wear white shoes anymore, I bought myself a pair of nikes I could stand a long time in. I have low arches (oh the joys of wearing the wrong shoes since high school with NO arch support), and I have to worry about the sides of my feet like where my pinky toe is. I get bunionettes :(.

If you can, get shoes that you can run in. Or, well, really, that's what works for me. You may be different, and can get away with other shoes.
