I love wearing high heels, but they're killing my feet. I'm looking for shoes like these, but I'm not sure where to find them. Where do you like to go to buy shoes for work?

Stuart Weitzman block heels are very comfy. Honestly, go to a dept store and try some different brands on because I think comfort really varies depending on your foot shape / size!

I find these to run narrow…

M Gemi has comfortable block heels. I hear Sarah Flint’s shoes are comfortable and I also have a pair of Ally block heels that are comfortable

I ran around in heels the first 10-15 years of my career. Post kids and post pandemic I just can’t do it anymore. Even flats without support hurt my feet. Vionic has great arch support and I’m no longer exhausted after being on my feet all day. I wait for sales and shop at Nordstrom. https://www.nordstrom.com/s/7556136?color=250&width=m

Totally! I rocked heels even during my pregnancies. Flats w/o support throw my back into a spiral… love Vionic everything, including inserts for flats and other shoes! I still love my heels but usually pack Uggs or flops if I’m driving, sneakers if I’m taking the train…

Easy spirit and naturalized have some surprisingly cute options. Need to weed through the not cute ones but they are there

I wear heels every day that I’m in the office, still. In the winter, I rock Toms booties. They have block heels and are super comfortable for all day wear. In the summer, commute in flats and change in to Cole Haan pumps at the office.

Clarks specialise in comfy heels. Not a big collection, but they typically have the staples.

Zappos. DSW. Amazon.

I killed my feet from soccer, rugby and high heels. I will wear occasionally, but my go to daily is dress shirts, jeans, blazers and D&G or Louboutin sneakers. I’m in tech so not frowned upon like it was in consulting. Curious to see what other ladies suggest.

Short of getting canceled for my horrible fashion sense, eeeevery now and then, Crocs comes out with close-toed office-presentable heels. If you can stomach the design, 100% go for them. You won't turn back!! Plastic and foam options aside, someone else mentioned Stuart Weitzman, and I'd have to agree (maybe they have wider custom order options?).

Believe it or not Dansko makes some nice fashion heels and you can find really cute ones- they are the most comfortable heels (even when pretty high) I’ve ever owned.

Got braids. You'd think I literally got a face transplant from how shook my coworkers are. I would say over 10 people have stopped me to ask about them or comment on them and I've been at work for maybe 2 1/2 hours. It's all been positive, but am I wrong for still finding it annoying? They don't lose their minds when Sarah gets bangs or whatever so I wish they could keep that same energy.

Any advice, thanks!
