What shoes brand is good?

Nurses Uniform/Gear

Published

Hi nurses! I'm looking for shoes that would support me 40hrs/wk at work. I have some nikes but I think they are hurting my feet, maybe it's depend on the style also. I have heard some brands that lots of nurses wear, so just wondering if you guys know any or have any advice? Thanks

Btw I also heard about Toms, and considering that just because its stylish and semi comfy (not sure if it would support me and my back at work though)

Love my New Balance, an American brand that seems to specialize in wide sizes. Reasonably priced as well. General rule of thumb: the higher the model number, the higher the quality and price, but I think they beat Nike's in both categories.

Let us know how you like them!!!

Omg not sure if its because I had an easy day or what, but I have no back pain! I usually wear size 7-7.5 and that's what I ordered, when I first tried it on it was a little tight. But it's only because I'm not used to the style, after I stood up and push my feet back a little- it was perfect! It was light.. Ahh I kinda forgot the feelings, since its been only one day. I'll update everyone after a couple weeks or so. Oh btw, I had tons of compliments on it as well! :) thank youuuuuuu so much for people who introduced me into this Alegria!

I switched to Nike Free 5.0 a few months ago & ended up buying 2 more pairs for work because of how great they were! I used to come home from a shift and could barely walk anymore, ever since I picked these up I haven't had and foot soreness at all.
