I have no preference about the brand. They have to be comfortable, and I do like the small heells.

Yet, I see so many ladies in this profession wearing high heels... i'm not in that age probably to wear stilettos for showings and open houses. It is a personal choice:)

Whether showing homes or not, I don't wear impractical or uncomfortable shoes. Given our climate, I wear pretty sandals for at least 5 months if not six months of the year. I don't focus on brands... but on fit, style, and price. At the end of the day, I'm not a "shoe girl." Shopping for shoes is like punishment to me. I'm a "handbag" girl... and boy do I have a collection of those!

I buy the same pair of shoes every 3 years at Nordrtom, the last 15 years.

They are a dress shoe that feels like a slipper....LOVE THEM.

But I doubt you'd wear them, they are decidedly male.

I agree.  During winter time, I wear boots. I live Croft and Barrow ortholite.  During Summer I wear any kind and any brand of comfortable shoes.  It seems that there are more comfortable shoes suitable for summer than for winter.

In commercial real estate, we showed office buildings (mostly Class A).  I always wore comfortable high heels and dressed in business clothes.  When it came to construction, I had a pair of old shoes that would survive mud, nails etc. and a hard hat. They were not fashionable to say the least.  The brand at the time that worked for me was Bruno Magli.  A

These are the ones I wear.  Bates 6in tactical boots.  Great support, look semi dressy (only the leather shows outside of the pant leg) and are just generally great to wear.  Been wearing these boots for about 10 years now.  Every year or so I order a new pair because the sole wears out as I wear them EVERYWHERE.  From the trail to the boardroom.

Depends on what in the show list.

Be aware I always have sneakers in the ride should the opportunity to explore present during the day.

Poorly maintained real estate requires footwear with solid soles and high sides. The hazards can be nails and glass or the rattlesnake in the rock wall.

Then there is the prissy owner that posts the 'Please remove shoes' sign. If I can not convince the owner to hit the "next' button, shoes easily slipped off work best.

I wear no garments with the Nike swastika.

I always wear low or no heel, usually slide sandals (easy on and off). On cold days during our "winter" it's a low closed toe flat.  

Brand is whatever I can find in my size..(AA width). New Balance sneakers for heavy duty use, Top Siders (either loafers or original) for rainy days or boat tours and slides in various brands for daily wear.

I just ordered a pair of both Propet and Skechers slip on sneakers to try now that they come in AA...curious to see if they live up to what I have heard about them.

When you are showing a woodlot, climbing a hardwood ridge to point out and walk the blazed painted red east line, you are not wearing dress shoes or Tivas. Winding a snow sled, breaking a trail into a hill top vacation home that has a mile long driveway and is not plowed out means instead of nike sneakers or LL bean hiking boots you slide on winter snow sledding garb head to toe. Insulated moon boot time slip on time. Never have worn 5 inch hooker heels showing any type of real estate though. My shirt is buttoned up not open in a deep plunge and I don't have to worry about freezing a clavicle chest cold. Pack extra footwear a good idea stashed away in your trunk just in case weather changes so you can shift gears and adjust Krista Jenkins, REALTOR® !
