What shoes do you wear daily?

I wish that I could find some safe winter walkers that have a better grip on icy pavement!

I’ve been staying in more and more this winter rather than risk a fall.

Any ideas?

Merrells are good @Aunt Bea. I also have a pair of Timberlands which are very good when it's snowing/icy. (y)
 
In summer I wear boat shoes or Sperry sneakers. In winter I wear clunky, vibram soled Merrill shoes which lift you up out of the snow and slush. Nice loafers to church, and old black lace-up shoes to funerals, which are becoming more and more frequent. I do want to try some slip-on Skechers.
I like Easy Spirit clogs. Sketchers makes one very much like it. I buy them in black but the last easy Spirit purchase was 40 dollars cheaper withy sparkles so I have been painting over the sparkles withy black acrylic paint.
 
I wear this type of shoe (or boot) outside, a sort of sturdy shoe for the tree grove, grassy slopes, gravel driveway, and general chores.

But, if I'm working in one of our gardens, then I might wear what we call gumboots (and in the UK they call "wellies")

Sometimes I wear Blundtstones, which are much like Hollydolly's Chelseas, but no high polish & probably more durable.

In the house, I wear slippers, and when I go to town I usually wear a pair of clean, sturdy running shoes (UK: "trainers;" American: "sneakers").

Lightweight trainers. I know they say to wear trail runners for hiking, but I don’t like the bulky soles. Sometimes I want to go from hiking/biking to the gym. Too lazy to be changing shoes. My favorite shoe of all time was a pair of 1976 Blue Adidas running shoes. I wore them completely through doing distance running. Never have found a shoe quite like it since.
