We all know someone who doesn’t put a lot of thought into his or her footwear. You might even be that person. Whether that’s wearing the cheapest shoes you can possibly find, wearing your shoes until they literally fall apart (and then maybe keep wearing them for a little while longer), or—sin of all sins—you wear the wrong size footwear: not wearing the right shoes is something that will come back to bite you.

Footwear and your bone health

Your feet are literally the foundation your bones sit on. Everything sits on your feet, and your feet rely on your shoes to get the proper support they need. When you’re wearing improper or undersized footwear, you are putting your feet at risk of blisters, irritated joints, plantar fasciitis, sesamoiditis, and even arthritis. It’s amazing to think that just altering your footwear can prevent all this pain and ache and a lot of people still don’t do it. 

However, we also know that finding the right footwear can seem daunting. People know that their footwear is an investment, but it can still be hard to lay down the cash required to get the recommended shoes. From there, the worry is did you get the right shoes in the end?

To help make your choice a bit easier, here are five very comfy shoes for men:
