The walking/running shoes you see below were recommended by several experts I saw on YouTube. A lot of praise went to the shoes' wide toe boxes, as well as to their arch support. I've been wearing them to work for the past few days, but once I'm healed up enough, I need to taken them on some longer walks to break them in. No more Skechers, I guess, and I'm back to having laces, but I still have the nasty habit of slipping my shoes on and off without worrying about the laces.

I'm not actually a size 13: I'm closer to an 11, but my feet have definitely spread a bit from all of the walking, and 11s and 12s are just too tight across my feet.
These shoes, at least for the moment, feel comfortable. Once I start distance walking again, I'll find out all sorts of things about pressure points, etc.

The laces are a bit too long, so I'll have to figure out a better way of tying my shoes. I'm sure YouTube is full of tutorials by people with weird accents.
