Too bad you can't buy these shoes any more online, or I'd get several more pairs. I hated them when they first arrived and they sat in the box for about six weeks while I shopped around for something more attractive and comfortable. Then I finally went ahead and put my own orthotics in them (removing Drew's orthotics entirely), after which they instantly became the most comfortable shoes I had ever worn. Then I had to get used to their appearance, which took about a week. Now I wear them every day, mostly with dresses to work, but occasionally with pants. Can't count the number of compliments I have received, and I dread the day they wear out. I'd pay twice as much for another pair.
