Help Me Find Some Good Comfortable Shoes for My Husband!

sketchers are comfy and have some nice work type styles.
(and if he doesn't think the shoes u bring home are comfy, he should go try them on with you!) ;)

My husband wears the "Ecco" brand and has been very pleased. They will also re-sole/re-condition the shoes when they start to work out.

I wear MBTs... they have a men's line, as well. Not very attractive, but extremely comfortable.

LL Bean has some comfort Mocs they are the only shoe my husban wears and he is on his feet all day!! $29.00

Of course the solution IS for him to go out and get his own...they're his feet, and to get the right shoe requires an in-store fitting. Sneakers and sandals, not so much, but dress shoes definitely. Try S&K or Men's Wearhouse.

if you are in the baltimore area i suggest van dyke and bacon in ellicott city on rt 40. that is where i buy sas shoes for my work. they have mens and womens shoes. sas does not have a website so you need to go to a store

Have you tried shopping online with Zappos.com? I love the Clarks shoes! So comfortable you could sleep in them! Perhaps they have a mens line?

What is up with men and shopping? I don't particularly like shopping either, especially for my picky husband....but I do it any way! So really maybe I have the problem...haha. He never has shirts that fit right and he refuses to wear certain things that I bring home - I TRY - it's not like I am buying him clothes that he wouldn't look good in - and they are neutral colors! But, if the sleeves are short or the buttons aren't just right or the shoulder room isn't adequate, etc, they will sit in his closet...I even tried to go to Big and Tall sizes and then they were too big in the waist! I can't win...so I tell him to go to the store for himself and he won't do it - just complains how nothing fits or he has nothing to wear. Well, suck it up - I have been to the store for you even though I didn't want to, then back again TWICE to exchange clothes for YOU. So, if you want something to wear, go out and buy it yourself!
One thing that kind of worked though is buying him a gift certificate. I have done this a couple times and he will eventually go to the store to spend it. Maybe you could try getting him one for the shoe warehouse that has various brands that he can choose from. Also - whenever you two are out and about, trick him into just stopping in for a second....holding him hostage may sound like extreme measures, but it could work!!

redwings are great, although maybe not as 'dress' as you might want. i definitely echo everyone's recommendations for rockports. my husband loves 'em.

My husband has had a pair of ecco loafers forever and he loves them. Also Born makes a nice casual shoe.

my husband swears by Rockports. He wears them more than anything else for work and gets a new pair every 12-20 months.

Well gosh, only HE can find a comfortable shoe for hisself. LOL> stop trying. Whats comfortable for one person is not comfy for all. It also all depends on what exactly is uncomfortable for him. Maybe he just needs a good cushy insert, or perhaps he has a foot issue that requires orthopedic inserts. Its hard to say how to make him comfy.
Try a specialized shoe store like Good Feet.

zappos.com includes reviews on comfort and fit. Shipping is free, even for returns. I've found the reviews to be accurate. You can see hundreds of shoes without leaving your house.

Rockports are what my husband wears. They come in wide & extra wide widths (I think narrow widths too) and have a gel inside on some styles. You can find them anywhere from $80+. They last a long time! My husband is on his feet a good portion of the day and I buy him a new pair about once a year. Check them out online. My husband doesn't buy his clothes or shoes either. Electronics is the only thing he goes out to "try on". Good luck.

I hubby loves his Rockport. They run about $70 a pair or so but you can find them on sale at DSW. They have all styles of casual/dress shoes. He has no problems even if he has to stand for a while.

I have had this battle with my husband REPEATEDLY. The solution was to get him to try on shoes when we were out one day until he got a pair that worked. Once we had a pair (Rockports are for him!!!), I buy the replacements. They make the same general style, with slight variations, but the same fit, so it always works. He won't shop for clothes either. He shops for food (I am not allowed in grocery stores since I only buy fun stuff), but all other things magically appear in our home when needed <g>.

Have a great Holiday.
