Do you have a lock on...
I'm wondering any of you who work on your feet all day have a favorite shoe you have that is the best and you just feel is superior.

I've been wearing desert boots with arch inserts since I was 12 (about 40 years) and never had any problems.

That's a generic type. Probably dozens of brands make them (including Rockport which has already been mentioned). I think my favorite was Hush Puppies but more sentimentality than reality.
I used to use Dr. Scholl's inserts for many, many years. It was an adjustable version - leather with little pockets you could add cork pieces as needed. But since I tried gel arches about five years ago, that's the ticket now. |

I've almost never been able to get a good fit on sneakers. My feet are too narrow and arches too high.
The only pair I ever had that fit right was a brand called K-Swiss back in the early '70s. The company didn't last, though. [edit] I just GOOGLED them - I see they're back. I'll have to check them out again. |

I had a dream about putting shoes on over a pair of tongs
I don't think they would qualify for this thread overtongs don't sound comfortable |

Eccos work for me. They are a little pricey and they will make you look like Euro-trash, but they are pretty comfy for a casual leather shoe.

I'd love to find someplace that sells Eccos. Problem is, I have a wide foot. Anyplace in KC carry 'em?

Not sure on the KC one but I have seen them in Dillards. Since they are a bit pricey I just try them on a the store to figure out my size (make note of the Euro size) and buy them online.
