Good Airport Friendly Shoes
 

Anyone know where I can get some nice looking airport friendly shoes for work. I like the ones I have, but I am sick of taking them off everytime I go through security.. All the ones I seem to see online don't look very nice, feel free to post any links where I can find some. Thank you!

Clarks. I got mine at JC Penney.

Try Dockers

Rockport. No metal studs (so you don't have to take them off in security), and the soles wear well w/ the deice fluid. (I'm going on a 3rd winter in mine!) I will treat myself to a brand new pair once it warms up.

Let me google that for you

Deer Stags at JcPenney or any Stopover store. Around $40 bucks. Decent shoes.

I really like these ones..... Johnston & Murphy Dobson Cap Lace Up (Black) - Airport Safe, Steel-Free

Thanks guys for the recommendations

Ecco . . . . any slip-on, dress pair. Best shoe ever.

Rockports are good too

dockers airport friendly at sears 50$

Ecco Austin cap toe. Pricey but a darn good shoe.

I love my Clarks slip on shoe. Had'em about 2yrs now and still look great.

I got a pair of Hushpuppies, they are a 100% more comforatable than my Rockports and the soles dont wear out as fast.

I like Skechers same shoes I had as a bus boy.

Ha ha, this is hilarious... I'm gonna use that thing every chance I get now!

Anyways, I have the Dockers slipons, which have no metal shanks, and are very comfortable! I'm on my second pair in three years, so they don't last forever, but they're only 60 bucks...

+1. HAS to be a slip on.

I just go to Marshalls, Ross, or Burlington -- they usually have some decent Nunn Bush, Deer Stags, Guess, etc. for about thirty bucks.

Deer Stags don't seem to last more than 9 months or so. I've always worn the times. I may make a switch.

Clark's. I have the Un-structured style and like them a lot. Easy to slip on and no metal.

I wear Clarks also, bought them at Macy's. I've had them for about 1.5 years now and they are very comfortable. Easy to slip on/off and now metal shank.

I'd also recommend the Dockers that can be found at Sears. Square toe looks nice and they are slip on too.

If you are interested in boots, Ariat makes some nice boots that have composite shanks and are airport friendly. I've got the Blackwater model with the square toe that looks sharp and very comfortable. They have since been discontinued but if you look around you may be able to find them online.

+ 1 for the Deer stags. You can find them on sale for $30-$35 sometimes. I buy 2 pairs at a time. Very comfy, detector proof and weatherproof. They do only last for 9-12 months, but they are cheap and comfortable.

Clark's. I have the Un-structured style and like them a lot. Easy to slip on and no metal.

If you don't want to buy online, Nordstrom Rack has good dress shoes. If you are not sure if there is a shank or not try bending the sole in half or twisting it and you can feel where the shank ends just forward of the arch. If it flexes right in the middle, no shank. I do get some funny looks though as I'm folding every pair of shoes I pick up!

anyone know of a good site where you can find size 14 airport friendly shoes?

the gift shop at the san diego zoo - the one by the marsupial exhibit

I wear shoes in the summer and boots in the winter (got tired of feet getting wet from snow going over the top of the shoe)

Shoes I wear ECCO not sure of the style name, but they are tied and basic black dress. Think I got them from JC Pennys. By far the most comfortable work shoe I've ever had. Downside is they were just shy of 200 bucks so that kind of hurt. Plus side is I bought them Summer of 2005 and they still look good. Can probably get a few more summers out of them.

Boots went with Rocky "TMC" I think it stand for Technology Made Comfortable. They were advertised as "SWAT team" boots. Got them from Dicks Sporting Goods for either 40 or 60 bucks..which was awesome. Most comfortable boot I've ever had. More comfortable than some sneakers I've had. Top of boot goes a few inches above ankle so unless snow is over 6 or so inches deep dont have to worry about wet feet. Bought them Winter of 2005 and probably still have one or two winters left in them as well.

Both my shoes and boots are tie up and simple black leather. Both make it thru the metal detectors just fine. Both have been used for about 5 years. It would be hard to find a better deal than these.

True Story

Another vote for Eccos. I've had mine for 2 years and they still feel & look great. Get them at the Nordstrom half price sale and you won't be disappointed.

Ecco aswell get them at Nordstrom's Rack for like 75 bucks vs 200

Forget shoes. Get some boots! Justin ropers are made in an airport friendly version. Benefits are numerous. No need to tie laces, waterproof, durable, no need for black socks. Plus they look great and can be worn with your plain clothes on the overnight, eliminating the need to bring another pair of shoes, thus saving much needed luggage space.

Heritage Ropers in winter.

Just bought some Dockers for summer...we'll see how they hold up. Got them for $58, marked down from $90 at Kohl's.

Years ago, I had Hushpuppies that lasted about 3 years. Great shoe.

Bostonian FlexLite

Get them from Nordstrom Rack for about $60, lightest shoes on this planet.

They'll last you 12 months as an FO and 2 years as a CA as long as you keep them clean (like most men should).

I say again Bostonian FlexLite from Nordstrom Rack

Agreed. Any Ecco shoe.

Dockers for sure. $60 at DSW/Kohl's. My pair lasted a year and half, and that was only because of a LOT of walking through puddles of deicing fluid. My only complaint is that the shoelaces suck, but you can pick up a pair anywhere for nothing.

+2. Ecco. $120 ish but well worth it!

No metal? Airport friendly? I see it on the website. Looks nice.

Yup, not a single metalic part on the entire shoe!

Just make sure you try them on in the store before you buy them...I've had one that was wide and the other narrow before. DERP!

They're the ONLY shoe I wear to work now.
