Not all dress codes are created equal — there’s something comfy in here to cover all of them.

I am a contributor who has been writing for BuzzFeed Shopping for two years, with a focus on products that make parenting just a bit easier — and hopefully more fun — home decor, kitchen gadgets, and whatever deals I can scope out.

Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.

Promising review: "Absolutely love these shoes. I'm a teacher, and I wear these every day! My feet do not hurt, and they are so cute! They go with everything!" —RPollard

Get them from Amazon for $46.64+ (available in sizes 5–13, including wide fits, and 28 other colors).

Promising review: "I’ve been wearing Rocket Dog shoes since high school, and they never disappoint! As a teacher, I’m on my feet all day, and these are perfect since they are well-padded and have great support. They are very flexible and are amazing if you have wider feet. You can’t pass these up, especially at this price!" —SSchmitz

Get them from Amazon for $26.42+ (available in sizes 6–12, and 28 other colors, including wide sizes).

Pssst! Reviewers say that these run small.

Promising review: "Shoes run a size smaller, but I read the reviews, so I ordered a size 9 instead of an 8, and they fit well. Very comfortable! I teach in these all day, and my feet do not hurt at the end of the day, unlike with other shoes in the past. I’ve gotten a lot of compliments for them!" —Amazon Customer

Get them from Amazon for $29.99 (available in sizes 5–11 and five colors).

Promising reviews: "I am a teacher, and I am on my feet the majority of the day, and these shoes are fabulous!!" —Kelly J.

Get them from Rothy's for $125 (available in sizes 5–13 and four colors).

Some reviewers mention that these shoes can stretch out a little bit over time.

Promising review: "I love these so much! They dress up any outfit just enough and are incredibly comfortable. However, I have very narrow feet, and they fit me like a glove, but expand a little upon wearing them. They have a very narrow toe box, but again will slightly stretch and not distend. Good support and very cushioned. I walk four miles a day as a special education teacher, and these hold up to strenuous activity and pivoting." —CByrd

Get them from Amazon for $35.98+ (available in sizes 5–10 and 11 colors).

Promising review: "As a teacher, I am CONSTANTLY on my feet, and I was looking for a short booty to wear in the fall and winter. This is the absolute best short boot I have EVER put on. They are comfortable and so cute! I had to buy another color!" —Amazon Customer

Get them from Amazon for $37.90 (available in sizes 5–13 and four colors).

Promising review: "I am so pleased that I bought these. I was looking for a pair of platform wedges to wear with my long-ish flare jeans. These are fantastic! They’re super comfy with a padded footbed. Originally, I thought I wanted a slide, but these have a strap in the back, which keeps them from flopping. They give me nice height, but since they are a platform, they’re not putting too much of a strain on my foot. I also like that they are not too clunky, unlike some other platforms. I’m a teacher and just wore these all day at school, and my feet feel great. I would highly recommend these. Worth every penny." —Lynn Cooney

Get them from Amazon for $33.45+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and three colors).

Promising review: "These are so cute and comfortable!! I almost never buy shoes online, but these were true to size (I wear a 7.5 and they fit perfectly). I'm a teacher, so I'm on my feet most of the day, and these have been comfortable for all-day wear. Very happy with this purchase!" —Laney F.

Get them from Amazon for $44.99 (available in sizes 6–11, including wide sizes, and four colors).

Promising review: "I'm a teacher so I'm in my feet the majority of the day. These are really comfortable and don't cause any blisters or pinch my toes. They have a nice cushion inside that most flats don't have. I've already ordered another pair in a different color." —Ashlee Holmes

Promising review: "I LOVE these! I've gotten so many compliments. They're so comfortable. I'm a special education teacher and barely sit during the day; I had zero issues with these and can sprint after runners. I'll be getting more colors." —E

Promising review: "I am a high school special education teacher, so most of my day is spent on my feet. I have also had many foot surgeries at the ripe age of 38. These are EASILY my favorite shoes to wear to work. I don't have any foot, knee, or back pain after wearing them all day and running around the building. I will say, if you have higher arches, you may still need to add some support yourself, but overall, GREAT shoes!" —Kelly Page

Get them from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes 6–11, including wide fits, and 10 colors).

Promising review: "I love these shoes. I am a special education teacher, which means I’m on my feet ALL day. Before I started wearing these, I had to choose cute shoes that HURT or ugly shoes that don’t make my feet hurt AS badly. Because I am 26, I let myself wear cute shoes and suffer more than I’d like to admit. These shoes have quickly become my most worn because they are cute AND I have NO pain when I get home. Before, I would get home and stay on my feet until I was ready to rest for the evening because it hurt so much to get moving again. Not to mention the dreaded first few steps out of bed in the morning. Thanks to these shoes, I’m styling(lol) and foot pain free!!" —Melanie Brown

Get them from Amazon for $53.99+ (available in sizes 5–12 and in 15 colors).

Promising review: "I have debilitating ankle pain that impacts how I walk. As a science teacher, I need to be on my feet all day and walk around the room continuously. These shoes are light, so lifting my foot does not cause pain, and planting my foot on the hard floor is cushioned nicely. Hands down the best shoe I’ve EVER worn. I have funky feet too, and these shoes are easily the best I’ve found for both my foot and ankle. No orthotics needed." —Amazon Customer

Get them from Amazon for $154.95 (available in sizes 5.5–12 and nine colors/styles).
