I need some new flats for work. Anyone want to share brands that they find comfortable? I usually buy Clarks or Born, but am not loving the look of what I'm finding. I'm a teacher and spend a lot of time on my feet.

I love the Cole Haan flats with the Nike Air insoles. I can often find them at Nordstrom Rack for around 40% off retail price.

I wear loafer style shoes to work. I recently discovered Life Stride. No sore feet at the end of the day.

I'm also a Born Clark's kinda girl They have enough support for my feet in general I also like Naturalizer as they come in widthshttp://www.naturalizer.com/en-US/Product/EC0219788-3014723/Naturalizer/Classic+Navy+Leather/Jaye.aspx My cole-hans are also good I found some at the Nordstrom's last chance and they are wonderful

I love my Cole-Haan Zero Grands, but they are an oxford style so you might not like that. They're light as air and come in a zillion colors.
Otherwise, I usually wear Munro. I have many, many pairs because they fit my foot perfectly.

I am on my feet a lot for tradeshows--I stand for hours on end and I'm loving memory foam skechers. Memory foam skechersI am typically a Clarks girl however for long tradeshow days you can' beat memory foam.

Keen have been the best shoe EVER for me! They are a bit "clunky" - but my feet, legs, and back don't hurt when I wear them -- so I'm learning to love clunky!

I ordered a pair from Cole Haan...I figured since they were 30% off and then free shipping because the original price was over $150 (I thought maybe since the discount brought them down, I'd have to pay shipping) I'd give them a try.
I'm going to check a few others out. I bought sensible black, but would like a few more colors.

i just ordered a pair of TIEKS. i was not sure how comfortable they would be but after reading lots of reviews i decided to order them. They are really expensive but i must say totally worth it. The best flats i have ever owned

Also don't discount getting regular flats that you like the look of and getting insoles from the shoe store that fit your feet/support them. I paid about $35 for the ones for my DD that needs the support for pronation but loves buying trashy no support whatsoever shoes, so we slip those inserts in and she's good to go! Just an option because there's so ofteh there's pretty shoes that don't offer much support. The shoe store had this thing you step on (Not Dr Scholls but I imagine similar - something that has a computer readout of the foot pattern) and then it recommends what you use.

I have a couple of pairs of Bass that I really like for work. They have arch support and nice roomy toe boxes. I love Clarks and Borns too but they tend to be a little clunkier or casual.
