I am addicted to those funny rubbery shoes with the holes in em..Crocs...they are made in canada...they are the most no-fuss no-muss squishy comfy things i have put on my feet in a very long while...Plus, mine are easy to find because they are bright pepto-pink..and i don't have to worry about socks...they are very friendly shoes.
I found mine at the thrifty store for 3 bucks..before that I thought they were too expensive but was oddly fascinated by them.

My second favorite are birkenstocks..I have a pair..also second-hand..they are very comfy, in that they feel like my feet are covered but i am not wearing shoes..but they are brown and blend into everything and are very hard to find.

i am addicted to my red high-top converse all star shoes.
i've been wearing that style of shoes since the summer after 5th grade ( a long time ago considering my 7th grade school year is over)
i love my shoes!! :P
my parents are now making me get another pair of shoes that have arch support, but i made sure they were converse brand too!! ! 8)

I love sandals! But only the type with the straps in the back and I don't like them in any shades of white, brown, or black. And no heels! But otherwise, I wear them all year long (as long as there isn't snow outside!)!

the same pair of Walmart sandals I've worn for the last two years. Sadly, they are breaking and shortly will probably fall apart, and Walmart no longer stocks this particular kind. :cry:

I've been wearing these and similar boots for about 7 years now...

They're actually some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. As you can see, they're pretty much flat (no heel). The sole absorbs most of the impact from walking on pavement, so they're kind to the knees. Also, being 5'9" instead of 5'5" helps to reduce anxiety when I'm out and about. They make me feel more in control. The only other shoes I can/will wear are some brown leather sandals from Peru that tie onto the foot... hippie shoes.

I wear a pair of zip-up boots most days. Combat boots are for days that I'm not in a hurry. (Bit of a pain to get on / take off.) I really want a pair of tanker boots, but I've been unable to find a distributor anywhere near me, and I've got to try them on before buying a pair.

Not sure if I want the polished black ones or the "desert" ones. More concerned about finding somewhere to get them first. >_<

I have to wear shoes that are as close to going barefoot as possible...no laces..straps...heels....etc...
Preferably the shoes need to be a little big because of my odd wide in the front feet.

My feet are all messed up from toe-walking, so I hobble when I am barefoot. My arch is too high and it needs support (I have Barbie foot syndrome)...otherwise I'd prefer no shoes too.
