So I just started working a retail job and I am so not used to being on my feet all day. I have Plantar Fasciitis ( an inflammation of the tissue in the arch of my foot) so I get a lot of heel pain. So I need a pain of boots preferably that are extremely comfortable and have good support. I can spend up to $150 since I'll be wearing them a lot. Oh and either black or brown please! TIA!!

They may not be the most attractive, but are certainly the most comfortable and very well made. I have both black and brown knee-high and brown suede ankle fitflop boots and LOVE them. I even get compliments on them too. They're like leather boot sneakers. Highly recommend.
I worked retail in high school and college and let me tell you, no matter how comfy the shoe is, your feet will still hurt after a long day. Buy some gel soles at Target and slip them in your shoes, They really do help.
Boot-wise, I've found these brands comforatble to walk around all day in:
Zappos.com:
Enzo Angiolini Zapata Black Leather $159
Sofft Casoria Black Leather $129 (I have a different pair of Sofft booties on today and they are very comfortable)
How dressy do you want them to be? Believe it or not, when I worked retail I wore Aerosoles boots and Aerosoles heels and out of all my shoes those were the most comfortable. I also find Cole Haan boots/shoes with the Nike Air technology to be very comfortable.
Do you have a car? The Bloomies outlet carries fitflops boots and all of their boots are an additional 40% off the outlet price right now. I saw Uggs for $50, leather Hunter boots for $75, Tory Burch ($550) boots for $130 and Cole Haan boots for $150. In that same strip mall is a Saks outlet, Nordstrom Rack, and there is a DSW across the street - they all had TONS of boots on sale!
