Have you ever been tired of standing on your feet all day? Well, I have the solution! Here are five shoes you keep you going throughout the day, all owned and worn by myself. 

Chacos

They are an essential sandal for any time of the year. With a variety of colors, straps, and styles, they are perfect to be customized to your desire. Averaging at around $100, they are an investment, but they will last you a long time.

Converse

These sneakers are a classic, and they also come in different looks and customizable colors. A classic high top is my go-to, but a low top is another good look. Coming also in platform or interesting designs, they are flexible to whatever you want. A basic pair costs around $55, so they are pretty affordable.

Doc Marten, Blaire 

This may be one of the most unique and comfortable shoes that I own. This classic black platform sandal can go with any outfit while also fitting with any style. These shoes also run around $100, but are worth the price.

Birkenstock 

Another great sandal, these shoes are absolutely gold. Coming in many styles, with a cork bedding, these shoes are ones you will wear for life. The classic Arizona sandal runs at $135, but has been praised as a lifelong shoe. Crafted out of different shades of leather, they’re the best.

Nike Airmax 90

This colorful shoe is an expression piece. Running at $120, they are a good deal for such a sturdy sneakers. More of a lifestyle shoe than an athletic one, they are perfect for walks, school, or work. They come in plain colors like all white, but also choices like designing your own
