Which brands are best, assuming price is not a concern? I'm willing to pay to be comfortable! Mainly shoes for work and casual--wedges/slides (not flip flops). And I need at least some heel.
Born, Clarks, Cole Haan with the Nike Air technology, Aerosoles, Ecco are all brands that come to mind.
I ditto these brands as comfortable, but for stylist? I like the Cole Haan the best. The other brands tend to not be as stylish as a whole, but I can always find a few styles that are a bit more on the stylish side.
