Why oh *why* did they stop making those lovely tennis shoes with no heels?

Okay maybe not in stark white, but whatever. I had a pair a few years ago which were divine. They zipped up. No laces. Love. I never found any after. I imagine they went out of style, as things are wont to do. But had I known I'd never find a pair again, I'd have bought 5 or 10 pairs and hid them. Really. Hell I'd even deal with laces now.
I walk around 2 miles a day with Ruby and with pregnancy meaning my weight is ballooning to levels unacceptable to my frame, my feet are killing me. I don't think less walking is the answer. Especially when I put on my comfortable supportive tennis shoes and feel fine... save the fact my heel is chewed up. Also, I really want to save those for treadmill running. I just want a pair of plain walking tennis shoes with no heel on the back.
Why is this so hard?
*sigh*
