Cole Haan

I usually wear shoes with heels at work just because most of my dress pants are hemed a little bit longer to accommodate for the heels. I only wear these shoes at work, on carpet, and no where else. Because they are, afterall, not that comfortable for walking on hard concrete floors for more than a couple of blocks. But I just found THE most comfortable dress shoes EVER. It is a Cole Haan shoe. Yes, it's true that they are on the pricier side. But if you get them on sale, they are a deal! So I got a pair of sandals (similar to the one below, the one I got only had about 2-1/2" heels) and wore them today. I basically walked everywhere with it and my feet didn't feel sore at all! You may question why such a shoe can be comfortable - they sure don't "look" comfortable. The reason is the Cole Haan is famous for incorporating "NikeAir" technology into their shoes. Yes! you know those Nike Air gel cushions you get from Nike running shoes? These shoes come with an extra cushion where the balls of the foot are. That part usually take the biggest brunt of the body weight, especially when the shoe has a high heel. So clever! I love these shoes!! I love Cole Haan. They are so damn comfortable that I don't think I can buy any other brand besides Cole Haan from now on. I just need to be on the lookout for those sales!

I don't have a pair of heels, but I do have a pair of Cole Haans that have the Nike Air cushioning. Those shoes are great for when I teach! I feel like I'm wearing sneakers! Now I have to keep watch for those heels too!
