My Franco Sarto black patent leather flats are looking pretty beat..
I hate shoe shopping and gave up quickly this weekend. If I could wear running shoes all the time, I would!! Unfortunately my place of employment would not be fond of that.
Anyone have any suggestions for black flats that are supportive yet fairly stylish?
Thanks, Runners!
I love Naot shoes, they have a great insole made of cork. I buy mine on Zappos.com in various sizes and styles and then return any that don't fit right or look right.

I like Naots, too, but they can be pricey. I find Naturalizers very comfortable, and they come in a variety of styles. This makes me so glad that I work at home, though (in my slippers sometimes!) I had a weeklong business trip full of meetings and presentations last week and wore heels the whole week. I can feel it in my back this weekend.
I've worn Dansko clogs for years. With suits, to court, on the weekends, etc. They're certainly dressy enough with pants:)

I get mine from target :)

Merrell has some cute black "snappy casual" shoes.
My standby are my Frye Harness boots (I have them in black, dark brown, distressed lighter brown, and tan!!). I can dress them up and wear them w/long skirts for work. I also found Clarks, Born, and Reiker to be very comfortable.
I have several pairs of Clark's Artisan line that are heels and actually are more comfortable than most of my flats.
I've been very tempted by a pair at my local store. They're even 25% off.....Quote:

Do it. You'll have them forever. They truly "mold" to your feet and are very very comfortable. Versatile, too. Look better, feel better w/age.Quote:

I second the Naots. They go on sale at STP a lot and I find the ones even with the heels are super comfortable.
There is a place here called Footstock that carries all of the high priced Euro shoes; unfortunately, their web site is just being developed. They have an upstairs discount room, where you can always find these brands on sale. Perhaps look for a store like this? DSW always has lots of Franco Sarto.
I'm a big fan of Clark's. I find they run a bit large - normally I wear a 9 (US), but with Clark's I wear an 8.5.
+1 on the Dansko clogs. I am on my feet all day and they are wonderful.
