1. go to the store 2. pick shoes that you like 3. try them on to check if they're comfortable 4. buy them if you can aford them, if not repeat starting from #2. ? How can another person tell better than you what will be comfortable and good for YOU? Unless you are 6 yo. | ||

Hmm.... ever thought about the fact that he is looking for opinions on experiences with shoes from other people. Maybe the store clerk would say "didn't you think of asking people you know to see which shoes they find comfortable?". If shoes are comfortable for one person, it is likely down the shoe... | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/8iCG6.jpg) Vibram five fingers treksport. Feels so amazing. No need for socks anymore either. They are my only pair of "shoes" now. I always wondered why people these days walked around in 10 pound clobberknockers. | ||

I've never heard of a retail location that would let you wear open toed shoes like that. And yes, it is open toe even though they are "covered." Also those are definitely not for standing on a hard surface for 8+ hours at a time. Just go try on shoes you think look good and walk around in them a bit. Then ask yourself, "could I wear these all day?" | ||

I always used the cheapest pair of shoes that fit me (usually 10-15 bucks) then put in a new nice and comfy insole and you'll be fine | ||

You have to measure your feet with a ruler, but they're so comfortable. It's like walking barefoot, but your feet are protected. You literally run faster with these things on. | ||

I talked to my local Occupational Health and Safety Board (government entity in charge of workplace safety), and they confirmed that five fingers were considered "closed toe". I work in retail and I have worn them to work. No problems with not having a huge sole for "protection". You just need to adjust and they are fine on hard surfaces. | ||

Running shoes are meant for running, not standing up all day and will cause pain over time. The other option are skate shoes, which are meant to give you support on your feet and brace well for impacts. Edit: And the point of working retail isn't that you're your most comfortable it's that you look professional in front of customers, those stupid open toe'd shoes don't cut it in front of customer eyes even if they are legal. Wear some nice dress shoe's man, the first thing girls look at are the shoes you have on. | ||
