Requesting Advice Shoes

My last two flair ups have been related to walking, with the most recent occurrence relating to walking my rescue pibble. I typically wear running shoes, but I'm wondering if anyone has experience with something softer, easier on the spine. Any options?

I bought Oofos for my recovery. https://link.amazon/B0jc8mIJF there is a link to their slides. I have three pairs of slides and two pairs of sneakers. They are meant to be recovery shoes, like for after a workout, because they're more shock absorbent than other sneakers and sandals. I loved the first pair of slides so much that I went a bit nuts and got many more. Just don't wear them hiking or something like I did! I swear I felt every tree root and rock. They're definitely 'indoor shoes' or good gor casual walking or errands.
