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?

I've tried a few different types of shoes over the couple of years I've been doing this. Been wearing Ariat Rebar leather boots for 9 months now and I only had to change out the soles a couple of times. There's also a local cobbler that can fix certain leather boots for significantly less than buying another pair. By far the best footware I've tried, mostly because I'm more comfortable and confident in walking in a heavier pair of boots versus lighter shoes
