Running shoes??

[Babygirlivy]

I guys!! I just got hired for my first nursing job!!! Wooooooo hooooooo!!! But now I need to buy shoes!! Hahahaha

I keep seeing that people are using running shoes. But are those leather? Or are people just not worried about wearing leather. I will be working in a PEDS office, so I will be giving injections. So...what do you think? I tried the Danskos on, but I don't like clogs and even the "non clogs" felt like clogs. I haven't tried the Alegrias yet. Do they feel "cloggy"?

Thanks in advance for the advice! :)

Well, most hospital employees wear running shoes where I work unless they are administration or dressed in business attire. However, if you have a needle stick with the needle going through the mesh and your policy bans those type of shoes, then they may fight it.

Everyone pretty much wears running shoes, unless they are not in scrubs , From what u have seen.
