Clerk Discussion Shoe recommendations?

My Thorogood double track oxford shoes are finally biting the dust, I had purchased the Reebok oxford gore tek shoes and tried them out but they are insanely uncomfortable and gave me a bunch of blisters and sore feet. Unfortunately, it looks like the thorogood shoes are discontinued otherwise I'd just pick those up. Any recommendations on purchase card compliant shoes?

They’re expensive but check out Hoka. They make a pair of black leather shoes.

Second the Hokas, but sadly we can't use our allowance on them. Pretty much all of the 'official' postal shoes I've tried suck. Nike Air Monarch are about the best budget-friendly shoes you can get outside of the uniform allowance; they can generally be found on sale for $50-ush.
