I would love to wear Crocs but my facility has banned them also. I have some New Balance walking shoes that I absolutely love, wouldn't wear anything else!

I would have to say Danskos for me. I have three pairs. I have no arch in both feet and the Dansko retailer where I bought them from advised me on which style was best suited for my feet and I have worked as long as some 16 hours days and my feet or legs didn't bother me. I have a bad knee as well and Dansko have helped.

I've been searching for the best shoes for several years and have tried many - Dansko, Crocs, Birki's, Klogs, Keen... and I have finally found the magic shoe for me - Mephisto Allrounder! I work in the O.R. and am on my feet all day. So far, these are the best I've found. They are pricey - but worth it for me. They are also very fun looking

I too am a Merrell lover!! They are the most comfy shoes. Even my MIL who has very flat feet swears by them, and they are the only shoes I put on my son.
Here is a link for the Topo Moc Pro that was mentioned In a prior post: http://www.onlineshoes.com/productpa...en=w&pcid=4653

Mens crochs do not have the holes. They fit just as good.

Well then they can pay me WC for a strained back, stressed knees and plantar fascitis...

If they want to dictate the type of shoe I can wear, they can purchase it for me. Otherwise, I'm protecting my feet, legs and back.

I feel like a clumsy fool in my dansko's. (great description by the other poster about walking on wooden blocks!) At the end of the shift, my arches and the top of my feet hurt so bad, i want to toss them in the river. i've tried wearing them several times because they were so expensive, but i had to admit defeat and give them to one of the nurses that loves them. I have a pair of K Swiss that I really like, however a lot of the nurses swear by those nike shocks (not sure if I spelled that right) Good Luck!
