Best shoes for nurses

I use these shoes for my 12 hr shifts in the hospital. My feet don't hurt when I finish my shift. This is my 3rd pair."

Son N.

Great for healthcare

I stand 12 hours a day, sometimes 2 or 3 days in a row. I used to buy a pair of shoes every three months because the arch support would wear out so quickly. I hate how most shoes are adding mesh to their designs to save on cost. I live in the Ohio and winters usually shred my athletic shoes. I bought this pair of shoes and broken them in four hours. The next day I wore them the entire 12 hour shift and my feet didn't hurt. I'm going to buy another pair so I can alternate them every other day. I think for the price this was a great buy."

My favorite KURU so far

I own a pair of KIVI and Gravel Lo and these are my favorite so far in terms of style and comfort. I work in healthcare and have to stand long hours and these shoes are perfect. Would definitely recommend to anyone who has to stand/walk a lot."
