Wearing heels for ten years as a flight attendant, I woke up with Plantar Fasciitis and Metatarsalgia, which caused extreme heel and ball-of-feet pain. That was five years ago. Today I walk an average of 5 miles a day w pain-free. I rotate between two different shoe styles, place extra inserts, and wear crocks or recovery shoes at home. They are all listed here.
I have personally tested the shoes listed to be the most comfortable for long walks exploring cities or ruins or hiking long treks in the woods, or taking long walks on sandy beaches. Mobility is freedom, and comfortable mobility is simply luxurious.
