I personally can’t be sure, longest I’ve ever worn them on clinicals was 12 hours. I didn’t really feel they were that comfy that long. I did more EMT work and that required a different shoe. I had 24 hour shifts there. So I just used cute leather boots and they stayed outside my house cus they got gross. I felt more comfy and support in proper footwear personally.
Kind of the same when in the military and deployed.
Medical people are wearing them to avoid ruining shoes with body fluids, not for sweat or breathability.
Hospitals are gross.

Crocs are also good for wearing for 14 -18 hour shifts too, though, right?
