Honest opinion

Hideous.

These shoes look like a bedroom slipper, especially at $150 a pair.

 

[BruceTracy]

I have an idea. I'll post others that are in my wearability range and ask for your opinion of which one is the best looking (or least bad).

I sort of favor these, personally.

I wouldn't call these attractive shoes but they scream "orthopedic" less than the others.

If you had to wear any of these with a suit, which would you pick?

They look just fine. Perfectly normal, casual modern shoe. Nothing fancy but I suppose you want special comfort for some reason.

Edit: With a suit, or chinos and a blazer jacket, I'd pick these as well, they're the most classic i.m.h.o. The other look like dressed up trainers or something.

How did you get that particular picture of them?

None of the above. The only orthopedic/special comfort/diabetic shoe I've seen that I would wear with a suit is this:

Though I don't know what your specific needs are.

 

[Mysterious Mose]

Geesie's got a point, they're nice.

I googled their name "Apex (blabla) shoes" and pics came up, the website you linked had a hard time downloading here.

That's the reason why I singled out this particular model in the first place.

 

[Mysterious Mose]

Stick around, others will have honest but constructive opinions as well.

Do you need an orthopedic shoe? They are not nice...if the answer is no. Comfortable...that is another question...

Those look like Rockport walkers.

Those look like Rockport walkers.

Randy

Do you consider that a good or bad thing?

 

[theinterchange]

I couldn't pull off the Rockport look, but know several people who can/do, I meant that it's an "aquired" look. On some, they look senior citizenish, others not.

[ThesFlishThngs]

They're a lot more clunky than sleek and dapper. If I had to dress my man in something like that, I'd most certainly opt for the ones in Geesie's link.

Quoted For Truth!

 

[John in Covina]

The problem for many is that orthopedic shoes or those for comfort for cronic foot pain points almost exclusively to bizarre, clunky or industrial designs and sometimes even an admixture of all three that are diametrically opposed to anything stylish.

One pair posted by another Lounger showed a shoe that is very near what my dad would describe as a Navy Oxford and that could be worn with an ordinary suit and work well. http://www.healthyshoestore.com/comfortrite-mens-shoe-stanford.html

(I hate shoes that have a raised seam going up the center of the foot from toes towards ankle, hideous, it reminds me of some type of horrific midieval surgery scar!)

YIKES!

With a suit? NO.

NO.

Those are jeans, khakis shoes.
