If you want uber comfortable quality shoes, you must check out The Blue Shoebox. They have 2 locations. One on the Danforth (499 Danforth Avenue) and a brand new location on Queen St W (693 Queen St. W).

I popped in here last weekend while my husband was looking for some comfortable shoes to walk to work in. They carry several brands for men and women and all shoes have two things in common: comfort and quality. Owner, Eliseo says he refuses to carry anything that isn't comfortable. That means ladies, you won't find a heel here higher than 2 inches, but if you want comfortable low heeled boots or shoes they've got you covered. You needn't sacrifice style either as they have plenty of sweet options to choose from.

I bought these cute low heeled shoes (pictured) for $100 on sale. They are Born's "Situla" shoe and are as comfortable as slippers. Honestly, these are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. Born footwear is handsewn and made using recyclable organic and natural materials. In addition, all packaging is made from recyclabled materials right down to the soy and water based inks. You can see their other styles at www.bornshoes.com

Eliseo is equally concerned about the environment and told us he plans to phase out their plastic shopping bags in favor of recyclable bags he will be bringing in shortly. Our service was exceptional and we both left with a pair of shoes that are wonderfully comfortable and stylish. We'll definitely be back.
