+1 on this suggestion.
There are also "normal" shoes with removable liners designed to be used with custom orthotics. That's what I did back when I had to be on my feet all day on non-resilient floors. That option doesn't work for everyone of course, it depends on what type of orthotics you need, but I got my shoes from The Walking Company and then had the orthotics made at a specialty shop. They were nice, attractive shoes and I wore them almost daily for nearly five years until I wore them out.
