Do they come in wide-toed fits?

I'm not rich so the cheaper the better.

The least bad sneaker brand I can think of is Veja. Generally you don’t want to cheap out on sneakers since you want them to last a good couple years.

As a rule with sneakers: you want something that’s minimalist and white as it’s the most versatile. The trick is to find reasonably priced versions of common projects achilles low. They’re an expensive rip-off, but that’s generally the style you want. But the beauty of white minimalist sneakers is that they’re unisex and go with so many things. Get them in canvas if you’re vegan. Unfortunately, vegan leather is nowhere near good enough to replace real leather, as it’s just shoddy plastic.

Counterpoint. White sneakers get dirty immediately.
