Speaking of toes: Yours are sure to be happy tucked into these babies.

Says New York-based podiatrist, Dr. Zaydenberg: "They’re excellent for people with peripheral vascular disease and different toe deformities."

The doctor is board-certified by the American Board of Multiple Specialties in Podiatry in the Prevention and Treatment of Diabetic Foot Wounds and in Diabetic Footwear.

Amazon's most popular cross-training shoe has plenty of accolades — both from reviewers and doctors alike. Board-certified podiatrist Ernest L. Isaacson recommends New Balances due to their comfort and support, plus nurses rave about these in droves. Shares one: "I’m a nurse so these are AMAZING for working 12 hour shifts on my feet! And they are so cute!"

$55 at Amazon

They provide plenty of traction — perfect for slippery restaurant or hospital floors — and are available in both regular and wide widths.

Dr. Zaydenberg shared that she's a fan of Venture 8's rocker sole, which helps offload pressure from different parts of the foot. It also helps with propulsion, plus the heel is great for those with plantar fasciitis.

Dr. Zaydenberg is a fan of these for people with metatarsalgia (pain in the ball of the foot) and bunion deformities, thanks to their wider (read: more accomodative) toe box.

They're perfect for travel, too, according to one reviewer: "I bought these shoes for a trip to Paris at the beginning of September. I have wide feet and have had foot issues like plantar fasciitis.

New York City-based podiatrist, Dr. Polina Zaydenberg, DPM, shared with Yahoo Life: “They look breathable and supportive.” And one nurse gushed, “Simple elegant lines and so cushioned and comfortable. The first time I wore them many people complemented me on my shoes and ask me where I got them!” And nurses know what they're talking about when it comes to long-haul foot comfort!

Save 21%: Brooks Ghost 14

These comfortable, breathable shoes slip on like socks. With an air cushion sole, they're great for people who walk a lot and need good shock absorption.

“I’m a nurse. I bought them for work for good support,” wrote a happy shopper. “I love these shoes... Not one shift has gone by where I haven’t been complimented on them either...great price, great support.”

Save 19%: Mishansha Walking Shoes

Lightweight and flexible, these shoes are made with a mesh upper and have a boxed toe for an extra roomy fit.

These sneakers are both breathable and lightweight, so they're amazing for casual walks, running errands or hitting the gym.
$42 at Amazon

“These are good for people with plantar fasciitis," explains Dr. Zaydenberg. "I like to tell my patients to get gel heel cups, but the bubble on the heel is even better because it has a lower density, which provides better shock absorption.”

Save 60%: Puma Women's California Sneaker

Retro, in the best way.
$35 at Amazon

This sporty sneaker — at 60 percent off in this versatile cream shade— is made entirely of buttery leather. The chunky style will win you points around town too. You'll want to wear these with everything: leggings, jeans, even skirts and dresses.

Dr. Zaydenberg is most intrigued by the shoe's thick base. "The platform is good for people with insertional Achilles tendonitis," Dr. Zaydenberg explained.

Translation: You're experiencing inflammation at the back of your foot, where your Achilles tendon meets the heel bone.

"Elevating your heel is relaxing the Achilles tendon, and it provides less tension in the area of concern," Dr. Zaydenberg adds.

Save 34%: Akk Women's Walking Tennis Shoes

Dr. Zaydenberg loves these stylish kicks — and she's in good company. They have over 18,000 five-star reviews to back them up!

"The toe box is bendable, and looks accommodative, especially for people who have wide feet, bunions and hammertoes," explains Dr. Zaydenberg. "The shank looks supportive too.”

The cushy memory foam insole absorbs impact, while the flexible rubber sole feels like a dream. The soft mesh upper is happily breathable — no overly toasty toes here. And each shoe weighs only 0.8 pounds!

These winners are available in 31 different colors, so grab yourself a few pairs.

Soft, comfy, and made to be worn all day — you'll look for any excuse to throw them on.
$35 at Amazon

They're even roomy enough for your orthotics!
