What sort of shoes do you wear in hot, humid weather when you have to walk a lot? I'm going to Japan in summer and I don't want to wear flimsy sandals or flip flops when I'll be on my feet all day because I'll definitely get blisters. Are there any brands that are particularly comfy with solid soles? And that can be worn with dresses/skirts? I can't wear sneakers for that reason, they don't suit my outfit. I don't need anything super pretty but they have to somewhat match.
I even bought pic related in anticipation kek. I know, I know, they're crocs and crocs are the worst, but to be fair people wear the fuck out of them in Japan and the cut/colour matches my clothes nicely. But they don't quite fit right so they're not as comfy as they should be.

I splurged on these during a Ted Baker sale.

I mostly just hate people who wear vans as some kind of skater touch to le quirky girly outfit and have the huge skater shoes with like a dress or whatever? Really specific people I see do it and it looks so clunky and 2010. Can't go wrong with a plain pair of black/white (not checkered imo) vans and I think the authentic ones like your pic are the only ones that sometimes look good with neat designs like this.

I own about 17-18 pairs of shoes and I actually just bought 3 more. I buy a lot of second hand shoes at a very reasonable price. I really don't mind if they're a little bit worn out or dirty because I own specific cleaning products and shoe deodorant, and sometimes I risk putting sport shoes on the washing machine. I am (hopefully) selling some of my shoes because I don't want to own that many. My favourite pair of shoes are these Gel Galaxy 9 black and purple Asics I bought for 6€, I use them when I go running but I also wear them with jeans and informal ourfits because they are super comfortable. I'm a winter person, I absolutely prefer my wardrobe for colder seasons, including footwear. I own a simple pair of flat leather black boots, no zippers, no lacing, just wide cut leather. They become my everyday casual shoes once the temperature is cold enough. I very much prefer boots than sandals. I also own one pair of platform boots with a 9 cm heel, that's the tallest shoe I have right now. They are thigh-high boots and the heel is square-shaped and heavy as fuck, so these are perfect candidates for the a resell because I have only used them twice in one year. Some years ago I was really into kitten heels and I still own two pairs, 3-4cm tall each. I don't wear them anymore but they are authentic leather so I'm not sure about selling them.
