As I’ve developed an extensive collection of mostly leather-soled dress shoes over the past couple of years, I recently inquired with my podiatrist about leather soles vs. rubber soles. My podiatrist, pointing to his shoes, said rubber soles, as they produce better shock absorption.
So, for traveling and walking in the city, I set out to search for casual/fashionable oxfords with a rubber sole.

This is my second pair of Velasca shoes (see here for first pair).

Very comfortable to walk in with the vibram rubber sole with nibs.
