I can't rave enough about the ECCO Soft 7 sneaker. I now have four pairs - including this one - because they are beautifully made, look fably polished and modern classic, extremely versatile, and above all are very comfy with good arch support. The only way I can make them work on my low-volume feet is with TWO strategically placed insoles. They work well on higher volume feet too.

Seinfeld Fabness, and a fun nod to the late '80s. The idea is that you pair these ultra trendy sneakers with ANY outfit, like they do on the catwalks. They run short so go up half a size, and pad the inside with insoles if they're too wide. I have these in white and with insoles they fit perfectly. They aren't as comfy as my Eccos, but they ARE comfy, and I'm enjoying them. They come in beige.

A top pick every year because the Scandi sneaker is all that. Streamlined, supportive, very comfy, flattering, refined, and classic Euro chic. They go the walking distance. Can work for a wider and narrower foot, but not a very wide foot. I made them work with two sets of insoles for my very low volume feet. I bought them in "vanilla metallic" which are a lot more vanilla than the stock photo (not blush pink). Come in many colours.

Don’t turn your nose up at these sneakers because they remind you of orthopedic or diabetic shoes - and what’s wrong with that, anyway? Remember that items can be perceived as unattractive and dowdy right up until they become the next big trend. Keep an open mind! It's all about how you STYLE an item that makes the difference. My ‘80s gene drew me to these because they remind me of a pair of white Reebok-esque sneakers I wore to Varsity in 1988/89. I LOVED those sneakers and bought another pair when they wore out. The SAS Free Time are extremely comfortable, well made, supportive, all-leather, and fit beautifully because they come in six widths and a range of sizes. It’s like walking on air. They run long so size down half a size if you don’t have long toes. I bought them in a narrow size, which works well.

A simple and extremely comfortable modern classic bootie that works with most pairs of pants and jeans is not to be underestimated. Clean, crisp, polished and smart casual. Comes in wide widths. Might be a little wide on the ankle in larger sizes, but not too bad. These earned a place in my wardrobe in white, and my feet are in love with how they feel. That one inch heel is the bomb, and they work with most of my bottoms. WORKHORSES for my style. 20,000 step urban walking shoes. The toe boxes are pointier and longer in person. The regular width works well for low-volume feet and long toes. I've already duplicated the style. Comes in many colours.

A repeat Converse style with a refreshing new watermelon stripe. Fleece-lined, VERY comfortable, cosy, and insulating. Excellent for cold-weather travel and urban walking. Good in gentle snow and on icy pavements too. Excellent traction on the soles. Works on a range of foot widths because the laces can be adjusted to fit the foot. Comes in black.

Mega '80s Fabness, and the trendiest shoe at the sale. They are not buttery soft, but I hope comfortable enough for my own fussy feet, AND I'll add a cushioning insole. They are a good fit on narrow ankles, and come in three colours. The red and black are as smashing as the white. Great low heel height. I can see them work well with straight legs, bootcuts and flares, and full-length skinnnes. Might throw them in with the crops too.

AMAZING looking booties. I just added these to my bootie collection. Comfy, low heeled, and richly cream. Fab for low volume or regular feet. I added an insole to make the foot bed more cushioning and fill in the width. GREAT circular heel shape. Fab narrow fit on narrow ankles. The shaft does not dig into you as you stride. You have to have a low instep to pull on the style (no zipper). Dramatic in a subtle way. Very elegant and sleek on the foot. Quite graphic.

Every so often, the more affordable Franco Sarto brand makes a high-quality and comfortable shoe that puts designer footwear to shame. These loafers in the SOLID LEATHER - not the perforated leather - give Salvatore Ferragamo loafers a run for their money. Low volume feet need to size down half a size. Elegant and chic on the foot. I have them in white and tomato red.

I can't rave enough about these loafers, which I wore on a shopping day with a client on their first outing. They are SUBLIME. Extremely comfortable, stay on your feet, and come in a wide width. The regular width works for lower volume feet with the addition of an insole. All the colours are nice, but rose metallic is unique - so my blush-loving self got those. They are instant wardrobe workhorses.
