Danskos?

I just bought a pair today.  I know they aren't the most stylish, but I need really comfortable shoes for teaching.  Are the worth the money?  I used to love Merrils but couldn't find a pair to work with dress pants.

    They aren't comfy IMO until you break them in. Your feet will hurt for a little bit, but stick with it, it's worth the pain. And you can usually take them to where you bought them to get them stretched a bit.

    They are the only shoes I wore when working 12hr shifts as a nurse. I have them in 7 different colors.

    Danskos were all that my poor flat feet could tolerate as a teacher. I swelled right out of my last pair with this pregnancy and they still don't fit right, but I hope I'll get back in them soon. Sanita clogs ar basically the same, and they come up on Zulily a lot. I also often find Danskos at Nordstrom Rack.

    Thanks, I don't usually spend more than a $100 on shoes, but I really need a good pair.  The appearance is starting to grow on me.  When I tried them on, my husband called them clown shoes:)

    I live in them for work as a nurse and usually end up defaulting to them on my days off once flip flop weather is over.

    I  loved them when I was managing restaurants. They're ugly, for sure, but who cares if your feet aren't killing you?

    I used them for 8hr clinicals in nursing school while I was pregnant. They are the only shoes that were comfortable during my pregnancy.
