Hi

I've mostly bought shoes based on (my sense of) aesthetics till now, haven't really learned about function and when to wear what type of shoes. For comfortable sneakers for everyday wear, what should i look for? Trainers, running shoes, is there a type specific to look at for my purpose? I went to a store today for advice, mostly was suggested running shoes.

Could I get a few specific suggestions (not as much variety available in my country)? Mostly for walking around the house or at work (an office), hard floors at both. Ideally something soft top, not loud colour scheme (mostly black would be great), not much bounce on the step, bonus points for easy to slip on.

Appreciate any advice or suggestions!
