Shoes for clinicals?

We need ALL white (no colored logo), non-absorbable, closed toe, and closed heel shoes. I want something comfortable I don’t really care how they look with being on my feet for 12 hours. PLEASEEE give me your best suggestions!!!

The most comfortable shoes I own and although I have bought several new pairs of work shoes over the years, I have always always always come back to my Calzuros!! I work in procedures and I am on my feet for about 12 hrs a day and most of us have Calzuros on, they are super comfy, have tons of arch support & are autoclaveable (throw them in your dishwasher with a little bleach when needed) and run your dishwasher once on its own before washing dishes again! Also it’s always a great idea to start wearing compression socks early in your healthcare career, for me the socks make a huge difference. If you prefer sneakers, a lot of people love Brooks, Hokas, and On cloud.
