I work 60 hours a week so my feet are pretty sore most days. Know any comfortable vegan shoes? I been checking online and most of the shoe reviews are mixed.

Depends on what you are doing, but Birki's Profi Clogs are awesome in the kitchen. They say they'll break down really fast around all the fats and oil and what not, but I have four pairs (three received as gifts), and I've only ever used 2 of them in the 5 years since I got the first pair. Plus you can change out the insoles, they're clogs so they're meant to be somewhat loose and airy, so I can kick them off if I like, but they never accidentally slip off. I love them :smitten:

I have a pair of sneakers/maryjane shoes of this brand and they are soo comfy! They were designed by a yoga instructor and are 100% vegan.

Oh! I really like the "Inhale" on that page. Especially the Forest color. :naughty:

lol What kind of shoes are you looking for? I tend to live in my Gurkees. If you don't like sandals or want padding (I find feeling barefoot comfortable, personally), you could try athletic shoes. NewBalance has a lot of vegan options, I think. If you need something that looks nice, I'd suggest going somewhere like Payless and trying things on until you find one that doesn't feel like it'll hurt your foot anytime soon.

So glad you asked this! I've never been on my feet like I am in my new job and my feet are killin me. I can't find anything vegan locally and I've resorted to trying some inserts that aren't the best but have gotten me through my fist 3 weeks. I won't last much longer though.

Shamandura- that site might save my life lol. They look really comfy and perfect for me. Thank you :)

Go to a running store and have your shoes professionally fitted by someone who watches you walk/run. The one I went to (Portland Running Company) was great, and many of the shoes they had were all man-made materials.

You could also go the Vans route, but if the new pair of Rowleys I just got are any indication, their workmanship has dropped somewhat over the last year or so.
