Super comfortable work shoes

November 12, 2014 10:15 PM

I just bought these Ellen Tracy wedges at Marshalls. I wore them at a conference and they are the most comfortable shoes ever!

The problem is that I am having trouble finding shoes with a similar insole. These say Ellen Tracy Active with technifoam. Searching for Ellen Tracy Active brings up active wear and sneakers and technifoam doesn't bring up anything.

I can wear wedges, chunky heels and flats that aren't completely flat and I would love to find more with the same or very similar cushiony insole.

Best answer: The best thing to do is to have custom insoles made for you by either a podiatrist or a cobbler. Then you can put them in different shoes.

Best answer: Highly, highly recommend Cole Haan shoes with the Nike Air insoles. Here are some, available through Nordstrom.

Now, I won't lie to you - they certainly aren't the trendiest shoes - but they are like walking on supportive clouds.

Best answer: Before you buy new shoes, get some back up pairs of these. If they're above and beyond comfy, you'll be sad when this pair bites the dust and they're long since discontinued and unavailable.

Best answer: Try searching for "Ortholite." I've owned several pairs of Clarks with ortholite insoles, and they are seriously all day conference comfortable.
