I tried Danskos and found them too heavy for comfort. I usually wear Crocs (without holes on top) which are light and easy to slip off when I sit down. Otherwise I wear running shoes with custom orthotics and shoe covers.

I've been wearing Calzuros for 20 yrs and they work great! They are autoclavable when they get soiled.

Thanks you all!
I have been wearing Alegria shoes. I like them so far! I'd like to find some crocs, but all the stores carry around here are the beach type crocs with holes, and I don't trust sizing enough to order online.

Danskos are expensive...and most are so tall! (i have klutz tendencies) I wear Birkinstocks. I think the style is Pro-birkie or something. Costs about 70 bucks. Very wide toe box, non-slip bottoms. I also have high arches so I put a pair of orthotic insoles inside. I do 12's and my feet never hurt at the end of the day. i worked as a chef and wore Birkinstocks there too

Try AnyWear shoes...very much like crocs and have the open heel with adjustable strap, but do NOT have the holes at the top -- and they're VERY comfortable. Work great for me, and worth the price. I found mine at a scrub shop.
