Which is your favorite brand?

Marlyn1 — Sat, 14 Nov 2015 16:47:05 GMT

in the past I didn't buy too many shoes from QVC, because frankly I found them very old looking, but I have become a fan of Marc Fisher and Sole Society. Which brands do you like?

Do you mean favorite brands on the Q, or favorite brands elsewhere? Marc Fisher and Sole Society are sold in other places.

My favorite shoes in my closet are by Cole Haan, Naturalizer, Born, Lucky Brand, Coach, Clarks, and Adidas. However, I wouldn't say that any shoe brand is my favorite brand. I can try on dozens of shoes by these companies and still have problems with fit or comfort. Plus, they all make styles that I don't care for. I'm always looking for the next great shoe, so I'll look for the Marc Fisher and Sole Society brands.

Whatever fits and is comfortable is my favorite. I wear a size 11 1/2 to 12, and not all manufacturers provide that size, so my selection is usually much more limited than the rest of the folks here. I don't even bother going into actual shoe stores anymore because so few carry my size.

I like and own Franco Sarto and Clarks, but at my age and with my feet I should stick with my Birkenstocks.LOL

I don't have a favorite shoe brand because the fit of shoes can vary so much within a brand of shoes. I try on a lot of shoes no matter what the brand is. I bought a really well fitting pair of Anne Klein sport ballet flats in an animal print, the style name is "If Only" in a size 8M and they fit my wider forefoot and narrow heel without slipping off. The Anne Klein shoe brand is part of the Nine West group. So another style of Anne Klein ballet flats called "Offering" is a pointy toe shoe and has elastic around the top. The size 8M is too short and tight in the toe box. The 8.5 fits better but a few minutes with these on in the store and the elastic on the top of the vamp near my left big toe starts to rub. So I try on the size 9 shoe and they fit the best of all...go figure! So that's the pair I bought.

For looks and quality of construction, Fluevog's and Dr Martens. If looks don't matter I'd add Birkenstocks to do last forever. I like the Ugg brand a lot too. For sandals and tennis shoes I like Vionic, but not their flip flops, I don't wear flip flips ever.

I wear an 11 and have a hard time finding shoes in stores that fit me too. The B&M stores rarely carry an 11 in womens shoes.

Birkenstock, Birkenstock for sure. I have a very bad back and for some reason they are the only shoes I can where to give my back a rest.

I still buy other shoes, but Birkenstock are my go to shoes. I have over 100 pair of Birkenstock sandals alone, many Birkenstock clogs, etc.

I bought all of them from QVC when they sold them. I wish to goodness they would start selling them again.

Birkenstock! I used to purchase them when QVC sold them. What great prices were those. I also love Alegria, Spring Step, Jambu, Keen. Anything comfortable. Years ago I'd get Naughty Monkey, and Carlos, when I could walk in those things. Now I have to be comfortable. I also like Vionic, but buy them cheaper from other places.
