    A lot of female nurses I worked with wore clogs. Second most popular were things that look like hokas. I don’t know who would let you put your shoes in their autoclave.

    Get something synthetic and easy to bleach. I wore breathable mesh upper barefoot running shoes for over a decade in the ER and I ended up with bloody/pissy socks more than a few times.

    My GF works at a hospital, and she swears by high-end running shoes for when you have a lot of indoor walking to do.

    Don’t know about autoclavability, but I’ve known a few retail workers and people with other jobs that have you on your feet all day who swear by danskos
