They don't have to be *too* disguised (black trainers with small logo might work) basically anything that could be worn with work trousers without looking too obvious. Moving to a new office and it seems the 'business casual' dress code might actually be enforced unfortunately.
 
I asked the same question months ago but I couldn't find any either.
The closest I've got is the Clarke's Air! shoes but I even had to put £25 insoles into them.

This.

Shoes, trousers and a shirt around the office. Even when we have 'dress down days' I still wear smart jeans, a shirt and shoes - you never know when an important client/someone from head office might turn up!
 
Just get yourself a comfy and decent pair of shoes.

As mentioned Clarks or a pair from M&S (like what I done just before Xmas) Too about a week for them to break in but they are nice and comfy now.
 
I usually wear some comfy wide clarke shoes with soft insides for casual. They're work shoes, but not extremely formal.

When I need to meet an important client, I wear my really cheap clarke shoes whitch I always keep highly polished :D

Because some of us have mega problems with our feet and out of work I wear £90 Reebok DMX running shoes which are highly comfortable and feel like I'm walking on carpet.
These Clark shoes I have now (which were suggested on here in my thread) cost about £90 and started to cripple me about 3 months after having them.
I put some £25 Scholl insoles in and they aren't too bad at the moment.

Oh I just saw your reply. Have you spoken to your superior about it already?

Wearing trainers likely won't be an issue itself, they won't have a problem with it, it's just trainers that obviously look like trainers would look rather silly with suit trousers/ business casual.

Currently it's no issue as the dress code isn't adhered to so I wear jeans and walking trainers however the new building is fairly prominent and requires smarter dress.
