Ecco closed type shoe and the Naot sandal seems to work for me, but this summer I bought my first pair of Munro sandals and could not believe how comfortable they were. Well worth the $$$!

I was going to say my Taryn Rose shoes are very comfy and dressy, as are my Aerosoles shoes.

Alas, I'm having a hard time finding the Taryn Rose Mary Janes clog that I had. My ((&amp) loved them too. Sigh...

Glad you found shoes for both of you. I swear by Munro's for myself. I took one pair to Europe for a 3 week trip and my feet were great.

I did buy a pair of Naot sandals this summer the day before we left, and they were so comfy I knew they would be great and they were.

Have the male try on a pair of Ecco Neoflexor tie shoes. Wore my new pair all over Italy, Switzerland, and France in September-October. Most comfortable shoes I have ever had (and I have tried several of the top brands). I also swear by Spenco insoles--worn them for forty years and never had a blister.

Cheers,

I like shoes by Ecco, Aerosoles, Mephisto, and *especially* Donald J. Pliner.
