Throughout my 20s and early 30s, I didn’t own flats. I lived in New York City, and could be seen standing for hours on end at events or running all over town, Carrie Bradshaw style, feet clad in sky-high stilettos. But when I suffered a painful ankle break in my mid-30s, I had to change my ways — which meant foregoing heels in favor of shoes that are both cute and comfortable .
That’s why I tapped two podiatrists, Dr. Adenike Sonaike and Dr. Elizabeth Bass Daughtry , for their recommendations on the most stylish yet supportive fall shoes . Ahead, find their must-have ankle boots, loafers, clogs, and slip-on sneakers, from brands including Clarks, Revitalign, Dr. Scholl’s, Vionic, and Brooks. They’re all available on Amazon , starting at $55.
