yeah man exactly, those look pretty dope too.

hadn't heard of them, but I might scoop some. thanks buzz

I have them. Like them a lot. Need your own insert. I use one from OluKai, because I randomly found out their slipper shoes are insanely comfortable, so I use that piece for all my boots

cool man, good to know you have some experience with them.

the days of big ass foamy soles are long gone for me.
fashionwise I only were puma, which have low heel elevation. but the toe box is cramp af on my size 12s.

I've tried at least a dozen different types of pickleball shoes and a couple of varieties from the same maker, but the most comfortable ones I've come across so far are sketchers viper court pros.

It's hard to find comfortable pickleball shoes because it's so intense on the feet with all the hard stops and cuts on the hard courts, and most pinch, bind or buckle in ways that hurt my feet after hours of play or they are bulky, heavy or catch corners on the court.

Not the sketchers though, it's like playing on pillows and I never notice the shoes when playing which is the best compliment I can give a pickleball shoe.

Sketchers also makes some real comfortable casual shoes, I have a few different pairs I rock but for day to day walking I also wear addidas and nike runners of different varieties.

Can I get some recommendations on the most comfortable sneakers on the market?

Im on my feet all day everyday and worn out my newbalance 1080s, they really took a beating, had them for a year but now the cushion is flat and started ripping.

Don't care about looks.

Something where the toebox isn't narrow so toes don't crush would be great.

Or where the sneakers have a "tight sock" feel that are so tight at the top, you feel the blood pumping through your foot. I heard alot of running sneakers are like this and really squeeze your feet, aside from being wobbly when standing, even though the bottom is nice and squishy.
I had a pair of nike invincible runs 2 years ago and they were tight af on the top, clearly meant for running. Most youtubers just recommend most expensive running sneakers for comfort to wear all day and I'm skeptical.

Any pairs that good for wearing and walking in 10 hours a day?

Someone told me yeezy 350's are good but need to half size up?
Looking to buy like 3 more pairs after that, I go through sneakers fast.

Does reebok have a comfort line?
Asiics comfort line are the gel-nimbus?
Sketchers have a comfort line?
Nike?
Hoka? Are Cliftons their best comfort or bondais?
Adidas is anything that says "boost" on the site?
Tell me your most comfortable sneaker experience lol

Any help appreciated my feet hurt


Go to a running store. Not like a Dicks, but like a Fleet Feet. Talk to the staff there, sometimes they have you run to look at your stride. They will also make sure you get the right fit and the right insole.

For me Hoka Clifton has been great, but that was more based on my needs.

Yeah HOKA's are supposed to have some of the best sneakers for heavy use and comfort. My daughter and all her friends who are studying OT and on their feet all day in class and clinicals all swear by them. She likes the HOKA Clifton.

Unfortunately, the Crocs website says "Donkey Not Included"

It's an upsell tactic

Hoka doesn't make the ghost max, brooks does.

I'd stick with Asics. The tech differences are marginal IMO but the price isn't.

I've tried multiple brands and came back to ASICS. They seem to get my feet in ways others did not.

I've tried multiple brands and came back to ASICS. They seem to get my feet in ways others did not.

It's a Japanese company. They make quality products because their people actually care about quality and not mindless consumption. After wearing Asics for running I felt the difference. American brands are trash. People don't understand why they develop foot/knee and back pain wearing that trash, they just think it looks cool.
