Not sure if this is a good fit for this thread, but it's a request about shoes.

I need to buy a new pair of runners (women's) that are super comfortable. I've got an off brand air cushion sole pair that my MIL gave me but they've sadly fallen apart after barely 2 months of wear. I'm on my feet most of the day at work, and mostly wear steel caps for heavy duty stuff (they're falling apart too lol), but it is nice to zip around the factory kitchen in a pair of comfy runners.

Can anyone recommend a women's runner that's the comfiest shoe but isn't hideously expensive? Bonus is if they're non slip. I'm a flat footed peasant with wide feet, size 10 in womens, or a mens 7.

Adidas. Often pick up a pair of galaxy 5's for 30 bucks from ozbaragin or 60 from DFO. Had mine ~18 months and they are still going strong!
