shoes?!

topic posted Tue, July 1, 2008 - 1:54 PM by  Maev
Hey guys,

I just started my chef apprenticeship at a local hotel...this is the first kitchen i've been in..working..8-10 hours a day. My feet are killing me! What, in your experience, are the best shoes? I've got a pair of slip-resistant shoes..etc..but my feet are just killing me!

Thanks for anything you can offer. :)

    Ive always worn clogs,first pair going back about 13 years were wooden botoms made of balsa so that your feet formed the shoe ,i dont know the make but they were my fave ,since i have worn nothing but Danskos healess clogs..they take a little getting used to but in my opinion worth it.

      I'm a big fan of the Birkenstock rubber clogs, too, my normal shoes feel weird after wearing them. Highly recommended.
