What's your favorite pair of nursing shoes?

Published

Which brand and why? For some reason, I've tried NB, Adidas and my feet still hurt!!!! Maybe I need to buy those gel soles or something..

I love, love, love my crocs. I don't think I'll ever wear anything else to work - it's like walking on air!

Hasn't anyone ever tried Dansko's? I never heard of them before moving to A2, but they're great! I also dig my crocs, but they're not exactly biomedically sound-I have several pair of blood/betadine stained socks!

I got a pair of the quark shoes by nurse mates from allheart.com and they are the best!

I've got a pair of Skecher cross trainers that I bought at DSW last year - I LOVE them! However, I think they're about at the time of when they should be replaced (I recently read every 6-9 months!)

I have always loved crocs. But I start a new job tomorrow and they do not allow crocs. My parents live in the Ozarks, and I guess there is a discount outlet there with this brand. They bought me some. I will be trying them tomorrow.

I bought a pair of Danskos. They take a week or two to mold to your feet, and after that, they feel great. And they are really easy to keep clean

I've been wearing Easy Spirits for years, I've tried nearly every brand out there and find myself coming back to my old faithfull Easy Spirits. They may not be the best looking shoe on the market but they are by far the most comfortable at the end of a 12 hour shift. They are graded #1, 2 or 3. To work in you need a least a grade 2 but I prefer a #3.
