I would suggest picking up a pair of Clarks slip-ons....I was able to get a pair for about $55 last winter on sale and they are usually over $100. These shoes are durable, light, security friendly and can be shined up!

House slippers and an apron?

High heels and the apron work better! My wife swears by it.

I walk around in Ariat Heritage Stockmans, a roper boot, and its the way to go. Thought about Eccos, et al, but when its -15 F in YEG or YYC, its pouring rain in SEA, you dont want shoes. Go with a good roper boot, your feet will stay dry and warm. Ariat, Tony Lama, Nacona, Justin. Even in the summer they are comfortable.

Dockers also have anti corrosive soles. My Dockers have been through lots of glycol and still hold up great.

I went with a pair of Ariat ropers this winter and really like them. They only take a couple of days to break in and being able to wear thick boot socks during the winter is a big plus. Next time I'll probably go with paddock boots though, because occasionaly, I look down and see that my uniform pants got tucked into the top of my boots.

I just got a pair of Blondo boots. Super comfortable, and still room to get warm socks in. The SAAB isnt the warmest airplane in the winter.

Any women out there have suggestions for good shoes?

Good luck, we're all counting on you. :D


I recommend the Red Wing airport security safe shoes. They're comfortable and tough. I like the look, too. They look pretty close to military issued dress uniform shoes, too which I like.

Can those be re-soled? (spelling?)
