Dansko Footwear is among my favorite brands of shoes. You've probably already heard a lot about Dansko - the comfort level they provide, and how durable they can be. Notice the footwear the next time you're in a hospital - the majority of doctors and nurses wear them when they're working long hours. Not going to visit a hospital? Check what the chefs are wearing - lots of them also wear Dansko clogs. Anyone who works long hours standing up can benefit from the comfort Dansko shoes provide.

My loyalty is due to a reason. Allow me to inform you about my experiences . . .

I have been wearing Birkenstock clogs for years, and I love them.  They are comfortable, offer great support, and withstand all of the outdoor activity that I enjoy.  There has only ever been one problem.

I live where it snows.  I do know some real diehards who wear their Birk clogs in the snow, but, alas, I am not one of them.  I want some protection from the elements.  The Birkenstock shoes collection (not sandals or clogs) are perfect for this.  They have all of the features of traditional Birkenstock clogs and sandals – and more.  You know, like a heel.

Barefoot shoes are the new "it shoes."  The market was pretty well established before New Balance entered it. With the bar set high with the likes of Vibram FiveFingers and Merrell Barefoot, New Balance carved out a unique place for itself with their Minimus Shoes.

The New Balance Minimus is a hybrid minimalist shoe.  It is ultra light, has reduced padding in the sole, but unlike other barefoot style shoes, provides the type of support you would find in a high quality running shoe (while remaining true to the barefoot philosophy)...with a slightly raised heel.

Do you have a favorite pair of shoes? The shoes you look for as you're rushing out of the house?  The shoes you wear when you're doing chores?  The shoes you wear when you go for your regular walk?  Basically, an everything shoe?  I have a pair of "those shoes" - and they're called the Kuru Insight.

The Insight is the most versatile shoe from Kuru Footwear, and that is what makes it stand out from the rest of their line of footwear.  It is a casual shoe that can be worn for work or play.

The Kuru Insight comes with the Kurusole midsole, which provides custom support becuase it molds to your feet.

I have never felt anything as comfortable as Clarks Wave shoes are.  Obviously I’m not the only one who has noticed this though.  After all, you can purchase these shoes at many of the top online shoe retailers.  However, I found Footwear etc. a great selection of the Clarks Wave shoes with free shipping and no sales tax.

Ugg Boots have been the hottest selling fashion Winter boots for years. Warm. Lightweight. Stylish. Trendy. You buy Ugg Classic Boots so that your feet can stay warm, while looking cool at the same time.

In Australia, the word "Ugg" means "Boot". Ever since the '60's, Ugg boots have been in use by Australian surfers for warmth after getting out of cold water. When Ugg Boots migrated to California (along with the surfers), the surfing community there also embraced the thermostatic boots (they keep you warm when it's cold, while whisking away any moisture when it's hot). Now Ugg Classic Boots are coveted by everyone, not just surfers - they're the trendiest boots around.

Looking to purchase a pair of toning shoes, but not sure which ones to buy?  This complete report gives you a breakdown of the top toning shoes currently on the market.  Compare one toning shoe against another, and decide which one is right for you.

MBT shoes have always been a favorite of mine. But the new MBT Jambo has set a new standard for MBT. These shoes have a retro coolness to them, and are, dare I say...the most comfortable shoes MBT has come out with to date.

The Jambo is a low profile MBT shoe with a traditional canvas sneaker design. If it were not for the MBT logo on the side of the shoe, it would be hard to distinguish it from other canvas sneakers. It has an urban look that will attract a whole new audience that may not like the look of most MBT shoes.
