If you've been wondering what the most comfortable sneakers are, you're not alone, especially since fashionable footwear can secretly destroy your feet.
In a recent TikTok video that received more than two million views, content creator April Lynch asked her 116,000 followers, 'So what shoes are we liking for walking these days?'
'Not loving my Hokas or Ultraboosts anymore... There has to be something new the gals are wearing,' April wrote over a video showing off her walking in Adidas Ultraboosts ($180).
April captioned the viral video, 'No I won't go to a running store thx,' with the hashtags #walking #postpartumfitness and #momsoftiktok.
Brooks sneakers were a popular answer for the amateur podiatrists, with many people suggesting the stealth fit specifically and one commenter calling them 'literally the BEST shoe ever.'

One woman commented, 'Another person here to recommend Brooks Glycerins, especially stealth fit!'
They praised, 'I've never, in 20 years, had a pair of shoes that didn't hurt my feet until I put these on!'
Another commenter enthused, 'Brooks Glycerin has been mentioned 1,000 times for a reason! They are incredible and it's the only shoe I have ever rebought.'
The streamlined, cushioned running shoes come in multiple colors and range from $80 to $160.
Brooks Ghost running shoes were another frequently mentioned favorite, with a commenter proclaiming, 'I've been buying them for 10 years and they don't make my bad knees hurt.'
Altras were another popular recommendation, although not all of the options have the same chunky platform that's so sought-after right now.
'Personally I really like Altras (they're the only athletic shoes I wear), they have a wider toe box for a more natural foot shape while still looking like a normal shoe,' another person said.
Other recommendations included APL, On Clouds, New Balance 1080s, Vionic, New Balance 530s, Asics, and Saucony.
Content creator Jasmine Rose went viral in June when she shared a video about the best shoes to wear if you're walking 20,000 steps a day to avoid foot pain

This isn't the only viral TikTok video about finding the perfect pair of walking shoes, especially as Gen Z and millennial women take up walking on treadmills or outside as major forms of exercise.
Content creator Jasmine Rose went viral in June when she shared a video about the best shoes to wear if you're walking 20,000 steps a day to avoid foot pain, endorsing the Hoka Clifton 9 which feels like you're 'walking on a cloud' and the Asics Gel- Nimbus 25.
About the Asics she said, 'they're not a looker, but they are a performer,' and described them as walking on 20 clouds.
Her commenters agreed with the cloud comments - and the aesthetic ones.
