Hi peeps,

I am a walker... I go mostly ealking everywhere. Usually I use nike with the padded soles for walking as they are comfortable but I need to replace mine.

Any reccommendations? I'm looking for comfort and hopefully not something that makes me eat cheap ramen for a month :)

Not EU (but part of EFTA), but I'd like to recommend the Mostly Swiss "On" shoes for this: https://www.on.com/

The shoes are incredibly comfortable for walking. They are a bit pricey but not insane. I didn't pay attention to them getting popular until I noticed every employee in a hospital was wearing these which made me understand that it must be more than just a fad (it was more than just a fad).

Edit: wanted to add that I mean specifically Cloud 5 & 6 shoes from them.

Always trust a nurse and their shoe of choice!

Ended up getting me a pair from here :)
