Do you buy your own shoes or are they provided through
work?
I buy my own — there are no funds from my employer for
them.
Where do you shop for your work shoes?
Amazon. They usually have the better deal. It doesn't really
have the fitting and product information I need, but now
Amazon has "try it free" with Prime wardrobe, which I
haven't tried yet. Customer reviews help make the decision
of which ones to buy as far as how they fit.
How often do you replace your work shoes?
Once a year.
How much do you generally pay for on-the-job footwear?
My Danskos are usually between $100 and $150. I bought
two pairs on Amazon on Prime Day for $60 each pair. I
expect my Dansko footwear to last two to three years.
How could your shoes or work shoes for your job in general
be improved?
The upper part of the shoes need to be a little roomier for
feet that have a high dorsum like mine. And nurses deal
with body fluids, so the waterproof aspect is very impor-
tant so that sanitizing the shoes is not an issue. The shoes
should be constructed in a way so that using sanitizing
cloths will not damage the shoes or affect the durability.
