If you're only working in the kitchen, ID find a good pair of slip resistant work boots. Redwing, wolverine, timberland etc all make a good product and are readily available. They all made their mark making shoes for people who work tough jobs and are on their feet all day. They're pretty expensive upfront, but they'll last a really long time.
Danskos don't make shoes in my size ( I've got really big and wide feet) so I've never personally tried them, but I've only ever heard good things about them. They're really popular in the medical field, which is also full of people who are on their feet for long hours.
Crocs gave me no support for my Achilles and I think they're the reason I had ankle issues. I did like how they're basically flip flops for kitchens, but I'd never buy another pair.
I'm wearing rockports right now as I got promoted to the FOH (gm) and I needed a little nicer looking shoe. The jury is still out, so far so good.
A cheap pair of insoles can make any shoe more comfortable and aid in support. If you can't afford to go all in on a good pair of shoes, ID get these. I'd you can afford it, ID get both. I had an Achilles problem and my podiatrist recommended these. I still wear them every day, and I've been happy since day 1. Soft gel inserts feel great for the first few hrs, but actually make things worse over the course of a long day on your feet. You don't need squishy pillows on your feet, you need firm arch support to distribute your weight on your leg muscles and take the pressure of your knees, hips, and back. It sounds strange, but something less comfortable in your shoe will be much more comfortable throughout your shift.
Don't fall for the hype of custom insoles at $400 a pop unless you have really odd shaped feet. Those cheap inserts work great, I still wear them everyday.
Our entire family of flatfeet swear by these
Okay so I'm a server at a restaurant, and I'm on my feet pretty much all day, every day. I can say without a doubt that any Dr Scholls or similar product is straight trash. You don't want an insole that's just softness for your feet. That's not helping shit. You need something with support. I swear I sound like an ad right now, but hear me out.
These are awesome. The Pinnacle powerstep. They support your feet amazingly and you'll be walking around all day wondering why the fuck you never picked em up sooner.
I have multiple pairs: I have em in my work shoes, I have these in my Chucks, I have these in my ultraboosts ffs, and they feel great in each shoe.
They take some getting used to when you first get them, and you'll feel it in your arches for maybe the first day or two, but after the insole and your foot bend to meet each other halfway you'll be walking on fucking clouds.
my orthopedist said these were as good as the expensive/custom ones in his office: https://www.amazon.com/Powerstep-Pinnacle-Orthotics-U-Blue-Mens/dp/B000KPKMX0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1495764667&sr=8-1&keywords=pinnacle+powerstep now i see them at high end runners stores. i've had them for years after getting plantar faciitis, never had it again after using them. that being said, once your foot starts swimming inside a court shoe, it's over ~ time to buy a new shoe. i just take the new shoe insole out and replace it with the one i linked.
I'm not sure what budget-friendly means to you, but I'd expect to pay $50-100 for cute, comfortable shoes. Your feet will thank you for going for comfortable over cute $15 flats from Target.
I'd suggest Clark's or Keen brand. I wear Clark's desert boots for my office-ish job (I'm a woman and walk/stand a lot) with inserts to make them even more comfortable. But they have tons of flats like this in lots of colors and styles. Keen is mostly known for athletic shoes, but they have a surprising number of cute flats that feel like you're wearing sneaks, like these.
I buy most of my shoes online, so I don't have good suggestions of stores. But Zappos and many of Amazon's shoes have free returns.
Yay! My podiatrist recommended these insoles from Amazon over getting really expensive, custom ones, and they've made a huge difference. Good luck!
