Can I wash my suede
gym shoes? I ruined an old pair of the same model previously in the washing machine in a last effort to salvage them so this time around I am looking at hand washing.

Men's Shoe Filter: Today I bought
this pair of Allen Edmonds "Park Avenue" shoes on eBay. After the initial excitement wore off and I looked more closely at the pictures, I'm not sure if they are AE Park Avenues... Can any shoe pros weigh in?

I'm looking for athletic shoes for a walking commute, 2 miles each way. I have high arches, 'high volume' feet, and under-pronate (I roll to the outside of my feet when I land). Below $100 would be nice. Thanks!

My new Birkenstocks feel weird. Basically, I feel pressure on my left heel at about the 10 o' clock position, and on the right heel I feel pressure at the 2 o' clock position, like my heels aren't fitting the cups properly.

I would like to walk to work, but my nice work pants are all tailored to the length of my nice work shoes, which have enough of a heel that I can't wear the pants with flats. If I walk to work in my heels, I'll wear out the shoes really quickly. Plus, they're not as comfortable as sneakers or flats. I would really appreciate any ideas you guys have, because taking the subway two stops is such a waste! Thanks in advance.

We're going to Ireland for two weeks in early June, and while its not exactly a walking/hiking tour, I'm sure there's going to be quite a lot of walking through cities. I usually just go to Payless and get something that looks roughly like loafers, and wear them into the ground, but it has occurred to me that I may want something a little more sturdy for this. Any recommendation for shoes that are reasonably priced, comfortable, but don't look like I've just come from the gym? Or can I just by a cheaper pair of shoes and put in some sort of insert? Or any other recommendations?
Possibly relevant details: I'm female, late 30s, live in the US, don't wear heels, my feet tend to run a little wide, and tend to wear things either like loafers or flats.

Shoe Filter. Cute, affordable, and comfortable. I'm not willing to pick only two. Metafilter, I want to be cute and summery this summer, and my small shoe wardrobe does not support that. Also, I am a special snowflake with slightly weird feet.

I'm looking for some brown slip-on formal loafers that have
this kind of style but without the styling on the side (I'd prefer them to be slightly more plain looking). Any ideas? I'm in the UK.
