    I have a pair from Dune that have lasted brilliantly so another vote for you get what you pay for although I do have some from Sainsbury's that are fine and TKMaxx is always worth a look.


    Also, it's not really good for any shoes to be worn every day. Shoes need a rest.


    I tend to have different shoes for different occasions/times of the year. This time of the year I'm more inclined to wear boots. Ballet flats only if I'm dressing up but using public transport/walking.


    I'm wondering if perhaps you are a little heavy on your shoes and maybe something that wasn't 100% flat might be better.
  • Clarks Freckle Ice are the most comfortable shoes I've found, the leather is like butter and they usually have a few colours on the go.
    Mine get worn to death at work (on my feet all day) then get relegated to out-door slippers. Even with daily abuse I can get a pair to last a year of looking acceptable for work and I've been wearing them for a few years now.
