If you are allowed to wear brown shoes, I would suggest Burkenstocks...very comfy!

Don't wear high heels!! Wear flat shoes that are leather and slightly pointed as then they will be smart and comfyat the same time. Scholl do 'Party Feet' which are squidgy insoles to help prevent your feet from aching so much - I have them and they're brilliant! Hope this helps!

Try flats or moccasins. Black always works well at work. If you're going for comfort, definitly don't go for high heels, but you already knew that. I also suggest small shoe grips (availible at shoe stores) that don't show through your shoes if they are a little big so they don't slip out of your feet while you are on your feet for a long time.
Hope this helps!

If you are the person that asked a question before and you are a waitress, I don't suggest going for totally dressy shoes. Get basic black shoes, when I was a waitress the best kind I had were Sketchers and they cost around $40 to get a nice pair of pure black ones. They last a long time and wear well, if you are having more problems then that, I suggest getting gel insoles to go into your shoes as those will help support you all day. If none of that helps, there are nurse shoes that are meant for long hours standing. They are more expensive though and you may need to look for them in a speciality shop.

Easy Spirit makes a dress shoe for women. You didn't specify ,but men's shoes are generally more comfy anyway. Also you can go to a podietrist. They should be able to recomend a good shoe or mold you for supportive inserts. My doc just gave up and sent me to work with a prescription to wear only tennis shoes to work (with the inserts too). Due to the American's with Disabilities act, your boss would have no choice but to allow you to wear good support shoes and not complain. Although I would prefer wearing the Easy Spirits. It feels odd wearing black tennis shoes with a dress. Hope you find the perfect shoe!
