I've never owned a pair of flat shoes.
(Exception, old school mountain bike shoes for toe clips) Anyhow, are flat shoes a viable option as an everyday casual shoe? With the sales, way cheaper possibly more robust then some janky vans.

I wear flat shoes as my primary walking around shoes, at least in the non-snowy months. I don't ride flat pedals very often.
Some flat shoes are a little more "casual use" oriented than others. Something like a five ten sleuth is less stiff and bulky than the more dh-ish ones.
Most of the ones that look more casual are essentially zero drop and have a very thin/firm midsole. Depending on the brand/model they can either be really flexible or very stiff. So, depending on what you want to walk around in, this might work for you. I personally find them too firm.
The only flat shoes that I don't mind walking in are the more "DH" oriented, which have a more cushioned midsole and look more goony.
I use old five10 free riders pros as walk around shoes. After they get used on the bike a bunch, the soles soften up and they get replaced by newer ones. The old ones go to daily walk around duty.
My current pair of walk-around five10, have holes in the bottoms. So not ideal...
Thanks, was thinking zero drop without the cush to help with all the little micro foot muscles for better on foot balancing. Been walking around to much on supper cushion running shoes and my feet feel like stumps
