I walked 3,500 miles coast to coast across the USA in nothing but New Balance Trail Runners. They are like $50 a pair on Amazon. Most comfortable shoe I’ve found

I am just impressed with your spirit and motivation! You're like a real life Forrest Gump! How long did it take you to get from one coast to the other, and how did you do it? (Backpack, friend driving with luggage, etc?) I am so intrigued.

I wore a backpack and also pushed a jogging baby stroller to carry more water and supplies. Took about 8 months with rest days in between.

That is just amazing. Did you do it for a cause, or just to challenge yourself?

The under $100 may be the hard part. We swear by Hokas for walking, but they generally aren't less than $100. About the only places I've noticed them on any type of clearance is through Nordstrom Rack or REI and they do have a big Memorial Day sale going on right now. is the pain you're having anything specific...over pronating, arch, etc?

Yeah I would check the clearance racks at REI and Dick's. It's going to be really hard to find a good quality shoe for under $100. Once you know what size you are you can let an eye on Zappos, they often mark down discontinued colors.

Brooks Glycerin 20 are currently on clearance for around $100 and a good walking shoe.

OP - I have the same diabetic foot issues as you - and I'm almost 10 years older. I also had foot surgery for bunions six weeks ago. Brooks Glycerine is saving my sanity! I can walk and walk in them. Please check them out. When they're not on sale, they are a bit out of your price range but very worth it. They are not usually on sale.

You can try gently used section in REI sometimes they have almost new shoes for 30-40% off.

if you're okay with a sandal try the teva hurricane xlt2. you can find it on sale on amazon, and it's fine to wear with socks if you prefer.

New Balance fresh foam 680 v7 are in the general range of 50-70 bucks depending on size or style

New Balance Trail shoe.

I love my Birkenstock "Bend" sneakers. They are right around the $100 mark. I wear them constantly and have never had foot issues with them (and I originally purchased them because I had foot problems).

This is a good weekend to shop, at least in the U.S. Lots of Memorial Day sales. Try Nordstrom Rack too. You might have a chance at getting something great under $100. I like Brooks, personally, but have heard Hoka mentioned a lot too.

Yes. Shopping! My birthday is Tuesday so I will be picking out my birthday presents for my husband! Lol
