With so much emphasis on platform shoes in recent years, those who avoid heels are left wondering what to do. What can you wear if you’re not a fan of high heels, or if your spirit is willing but your feet are not?<\/p>\n

Fortunately, you have lots of options \u2013 that DON’T look like orthopedic shoes. All it takes is a little digging online.<\/p>\n

Here are ten comfortable, fashionable shoe brands that you can turn to for your work, casual, commuter, or social shoe needs:<\/p>\n

\"Aerosoles\"Aerosoles<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Aerosoles are my walking shoe of choice. Not only do they come in a variety of styles and colors, they do not exacerbate my old dance knee injury when walking long distances. A real plus when doing the \u201ctourist thing\u201d in places like New York, New Orleans, San Francisco, and the like.<\/p>\n

\"AnneAnne Klein Shoes<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Anne Klein has long been known for their classic clothes, but they’re also rapidly becoming a favorite of comfortable shoe aficionados. Their \u201ciflex\u201d series features softer, thinner leather with extra padding, which means they’re more flexible than traditional dress shoes, and therefore, more comfortable. They’re also reasonably priced (under $100), which is why devotees load up on their favorite styles.<\/p>\n

\"ClarksClarks Shoes<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Clarks was the first shoe company to produce a casual shoe back in 1949. It was an immediate hit, and Clarks had been the \u201cgo to\u201d place for comfortable shoes ever since. Try their flats, boots, or walking shoes for a truly amazing experience.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
