I wear "Naturalizers" Very comfy

You can't go wrong with SAS. I love mine. A little expensive but worth it. Good luck, have a nice trip. Rowena101

I love my Skechers Tone-Ups. They really absorb the impact when I walk. I can wear them for a day of walking and my feet and back don't hurt. (and they usually do!)

The fit is important. Buy the best fit for your foot and brand you can afford. Buy 2 pair to rotate them when on the trip and pack moleskin just in case you get some blisters. Try to break in the shoes prior to the trip.

I love DC! Have fun!

Me too; nothing but Merrells. They're expensive but worth it.

New Balance 846-they were the best when we did Washington D.C. last year-put on 20 miles each day of the week-lots of walking from Metro station-and to Smithsonian Museums-times 5, Capitol Hill, Riverwalk, White House, Washington Museum, and totally around the downtown last August for 5 days-with Daughter/son-in-law, husband and Grandson. Have a good trip and enjoy as much as you can see-traffic was hectic, so took metro train from Maryland in to Washington D.C. with one stop over/ change over on the train-had a Great time.

I will stick with regular Crocs, thank you. I do have two closed prs., one for dress and one for outside work, but the originals are all I wear anywhere at all. They have the greatest air cushion in the heel area and never do my feet complain because of pressure.

I purchased a pair of Walk the Walk sandals when I was in Arizona. They are wonderful. I can walk in them for hours and my feet do not hurt. I stood at work one day for 6 hours cutting fabric and my legs were tired at the end of the day but my feet were not aching.

comfy shoes
 

Many, many thanks to everyone who responded to my question. You certainly have given my a wide range of shoes to try. I do own a pair of the Easy Spirit slides. They are light weight and comfortable, but just wasn't sure if they would be supportive for the long haul. I will definitely explore the Ecco's and Keen's. They look very comfy.
Thank you , again, for all your suggestions. I'll let you know.
Happy Memorial Day.

I used to be a Birkenstock lady but since I discovered Keens, I almost like them more. I do a lot of walking with my job and I have about 4 pairs of Keens now.....they are so comfortable. I even got my husband soom Keens and he loves them.

I wear birks to work .Warning though they must be broken in and need to conform to your feet . I bought some years ago and wore them for a 12 hour night shift on my feet and not kidding could not hardly walk by the time I got home , I tried them again a few years ago and absolutly love them I broke them in first this time. I like Merrels barefoot for protection when I go away but then I actually go barefoot or just wear a leather moccassin that I make most of the time when I am not working .I have been wanting a pair of the keen sandals.I tried some on last year and loved them but don't have the cash this summer :(

Just be sure you have arch support in whatever you get.

MBT's!!! Dress or casual. I love them.

MBT'S.......???? please help me here.

I have a friend who was doing roofing job and fell broke his foot well more like shredded the foot now the only shoe that's comfortable for him is Keen. His wife loves them too.

Walk The Walk shoes are my go to shoes. Got them at a recent quilt show. They are fabulous! I broke my foot several months ago and the outcome is not good. Cant stand any pressure on top of foot. I got the shoes that have an adjustable strap on top.
