Merrell's are the best. I wish I had gotten two or three pairs when I got my black ones. If they fit your feet, they fit like a glove. It's almost like you are not wearing shoes yet you have support for your arch. Love them. They sell wides too.

I used to love Clarks when they were still made in England. Not the same Clarks these days, IMHO.
Working in a warehouse I would want a shoe vs. a clog or slide. Dansko are great IF you can fit them. They do not offer half sizes. I am a 7.5 and can only wear their sandals.
check out Alegria "professional" series of shoes. Online. www.alegria.com
The best shoe is the one that you find comfortable and fits. Perhaps head to one of the independent shoe stores thatspecialize in the better brands albiet more expensive. Shoes are too important to skimp on esp. When on your feet all day.

I am on my feet for 12 plus hours a shift ( nurse in a busy Emergency Room ) For a lace up shoe I love my black Keens they seem to run naturally wide , and I have had my current pair for two years. I have never found an athletic shoes as comfortable or that will hold up more than a few months and they are far to expensive to replace that often. It is getting harder and harder to find an athletic shoe that is leather as well .
I used to wear NB because they were made in the USA but something changed with them and they kill my feet. Tried a couple pair and wasted so much money. But a lot of people do well with them.
