This shoe is solid.  I picked this shoe vs the new version after reading a comparison.  My ankles tend to roll in and the comparison said this version was better for pronation.  I purchased a wide die to arthritis in my feet.  My first observations upon putting them in and walking across the floor was plenty of toe space, very comfortable, little to no arch support (reason for a 4 star rating), large heel space and a very heavy shoe to walk in.  I put arch supports with a heal cup in and found this stabilized the heel in the shoe and gave me the additional arch support I needed to keep my foot aligned in the shoe.  Now for the real test.  Two hours of grocery shopping.  All went well, no foot fateque or discomfort.  I was ready for a break though when I got home my legs had recieved a good workout from the weight of the shoes, I view this as a plus.  Once I wear these for a week or so I will try and update my review.
