Buy Well. Buy Once

My criteria is maybe less fancy than other people. Covers my feet + isn’t embarrassing + durable + potential arch support + cheap.

I’ve never found shoes that meet all those criteria. I’ve actually never found any shoes, ever, that were even durable or had usable arch support. So cheap + not embarrassing is pretty much the bar to cross

But I learned recently that crocks have amazing arch support!

What kind of arch support do you need? I've found that superfeet insoles work great for my flat feet. I buy them whenever they're on sale.

They also make my cheap slip on shoes last much longer.

Hiking shoes are usually pretty durable and supportive.

Fair warning. I have not found Crocs to be particularly arch supportive. there may be a specific model though that I'm not aware of that. has added arch support.
