Footwear. What. ?

I went for a brisk walk around the block yesterday evening after having consumed my tea. I wore my usual shoes that I wear to work which are comfortable and great for usual day wear.

However, it's a large block (just under a mile) and by the time I got back to the house I found my heels were quite sore. I was planning on two laps but would never have made it. Obviously my work shoes are unsuitable for this sort of brisk, exercise type walking. I probably walk more than that during a day in the office but not all in one go.

So - Should I be wearing a pair of good trainers, or walking shoes, or what? I'm planning on doing this regularly each evening after my food so want something that's going to be good, comfortable and not knacker my tootsies (and not too expensive). Nothing I've got is really suitable.

Suggestions/Advice?
