Nursing shoes..Dansko? Nursemate?

Published

I am in desperate need of some comfortable shoes. My school is super strict on all white, and there is a limited amount of ALL white sneaks avail. The ones I do find are not super comfy. I am thinking of trying Danskos, do they run true to size or should I get half size bigger? ANy other recommendations? I cannot do clogs, I will trip. :)

For whatever you recommend, please tell me if they run true to size, since I will most likely order online.

Have tried almost every shoe... SAS is #1 for me, but way too expensive and no online purchase. I've been using Reebok...

No complaints at all.

Danskos forever for me. I can't even count how many pair I've had! Love them, and especially love the black oil slick ones I'm wearing now! They are European sized though, so that could make it a bit tricky in ordering. I wear an 8.5 and always buy 39.

This may be shocking (even to me, I tried to find things wrong with them! :D)

I'm finding the Skecher shape ups to be great. Super springing feeling, feels like I'm bouncing on clouds all shift. I have zero back, feet, or knee or leg pain. (I have a high arch for reference)

I wanted to maybe try the Shox or even birks for a switch off, but I'm hard pressed right now b/c like I said, I have no fatigue at the end of my shift, hard to beat that.

Hi, I just bought my firsts pair of Dansko's, and I was wondering, do they loosen up after a while? They are making a sore place on the top of my foot, everything else is great. Maybe my foot is too fat!
