Male nursing clinical shoes?

Published

I know this subject has been beat to death, and I'll probably get a million different responses, but what kinda shoes do y'all recommend for clinicals? Keep in mind, I'm male.

An advice you can give me is greatly appreciated.

So I'm not a guy. BUT, I swear by sketchers work shoes. They make men's and women's shoes. I have some arthritis and foot issues. But these shoes will get me through a 16 hour double with no pain. They are great durable all black shoes (usually required for nursing school). I am a 2nd year nursing student, and a nurse tech at LTC and I have been a CNA for 2 yrs at LTC. Lots of moving!!! I have tried many brands but these are my go to shoe!

Birkenstocks. They were recommended to me by a male nurse. My brother wears them on his unit as well.

I'm a dude. Flat feet. When I was an RN running around the ER there were days I wanted to go home and literally cry my feet hurt so bad. Few years later I tried a pair of Sanitas. Have not needed to wear anything different since then. They're about 125$, and I've had my current pair almost 2 years, they still look brand new. Made of leather, no tearing or cracking. Google sanita clogs.

Birkenstock sandals? I don't know if they make other shoes. Most require close toes and non slip soles
