Just made this switch about 2 months ago and it's night and day how I feel with my Hoka Clifton's. I originally had the brooks adrenaline's to try and help with this issue, and the Hoka's have worked so much better. My right knee that was bothering me from favoring my left foot/ankle now feels completely normal as well. Can't recommend these shoes enough if you have plantar fascitis or any ankle/knee issues.Another vote for Hoka's. I started wearing them while I struggled with some bad plantar fasciitis (major foot pain) a few years ago and now that is basically all I will wear!

Sadly, there is no single right answer. We all have very different needs because our bodies aren't all built the same, and what works/is comfortable for one person might be miserable for someone else. I'd recommend taking something you're already familiar with that you find comfortable, keeping in mind the extra amount of walking.
I have plantar fasciitis from work , Achilles tendinitis in my left from work and when not wearing work boots I wear Hoka athletic shoes or Oofos flip flops and literally nothing else. I have wide feet and my podistrist recommends these for me.
Love my Asics- I wear them with my inserts and can walk forever, and my feet stay warm!I like Asics because they have good support but are breathable. Lately I've been wearing HOKA sneakers which are super comfortable and supportive.
You could also try wearing your Chacos with Bombas socks.
Eww! This Vancouver Island girl says "No! Just NO!!!" to socks with sandals. LolI say dont risk it and just do socks with your sandals!

Socks with sandals, slides, crocs is cool now. At least in So Cal.
lol. No for me too... at least in public anyway. I’m a Hoka wearer. I used to like Brooks, but I ended up switching it up. I agree though, everyone’s needs are different! Birkenstocks healed my Plantar fasciitis, but they give me blisters if it’s too hot, or too much walking. The keen presidio’s worked well for me with a Birkenstock insert for 12 hr work days and 25k steps on disney trips.Eww! This Vancouver Island girl says "No! Just NO!!!" to socks with sandals. Lol
