"To help us come up with a list of the best shoes for being on your feet all day, we've tapped the true endurance experts-nurses-so you can avoid sore, achy feet on your next trip. Ahead, we've rounded up the top 14 nurse-approved pairs of walking shoes, all rated highly by healthcare professionals for their comfort, lasting support, and easy, all-day wear."

"For De Groot, the Cloudtilt offers the perfect blend of comfort and durability she needs for 12-hour shifts. "I loved Danskos, but they were always a little too heavy for me. On Clouds are the lightest and most supportive shoes I've worn," she says. Plus, she adds that they're also super low-maintenance with easy-to-clean, lightweight materials and pull-on laces-all major pros for nurses."

"Brittany Slegers, who used to work as a bedside nurse and now spends hours on her feet teaching nursing clinicals, says her Asics Gel-Nimbus running shoes have been a game-changer on the floor. "The cushioning is super supportive and comfortable," Slegers shared. "I will be requesting another pair for Christmas for an upcoming Disney trip. These are the only shoes I trust to get me through 14-hour days.""
