Comfy walking shoes

I'm going to England in a few months (May, to be exact), and I'd imagine I'm going to be doing a ton of walking while there. I want to find some shoes that I can walk in, but aren't ugly. It seems like all the comfy walking shoes are also unattractive.

I want to get them a little early, so that I can break them in before my trip.

Any suggestions?

    For sneakers, I like to go with a low end running shoe. They tend to be really good for walking around on pavement all day.

    I work for a Sports Medicine Podiatry clinic and these are the shoes we typically recommend. Find a pair you think is most comfortable:

    Note: You don't have to purchase a walking shoe for them to be comfortable walking. My personal favorite are the Saucony's

    If you are looking for walking shoes anything will really work, but if you want to work out a little to the new Reebox Toning ones ( I forgot the offical name) are suppose to be great! I'm getting some at my next pay day! My friend says they are great.

    Another friend uses the shape-ups and she loves them. She's on her feet all day (nurse) and she never gets tired in those shoes.

    I love my Danskos! second favorite would be a Birkie. My DD has a cute pair of Eckos that she loves, they're a Mary Jane style so cuter than a gym shoe.

    Try shape ups. They come in sandal style and others that look less sporty but still the comfort. I just got my first pair--sneaker-type, but plan to get other styles.. Mine were about $100. My feet deserve the best!!
