In the past three years Ive struggled with severe plantar fasciitis. Ive tried about fifteen insole products, including customs. I tendinitis in my toe. Then foot drop and found out my foot problems are from my spine. It doesnt change that my feet hurt but it did help my understanding. Maybe some people other people have that same struggle. Ive tried and returned probably seventy pairs of shoes. But these! Oh, geez.

My other pair is Ryka that I use a semi custom in. I have Paloma Alegria for dress up and they're fine. My big toe now stands tall on its own and I need a big toe box. I positively hate reading those like walking on clouds shoe reviews. My feet are constantly like knives! But for the first time in three years, the knives are quieted. Its stunning.

Yes, the shoes aren't the most attractive. I find them to look a little like giant black almonds on my feet. Theyre very simple. But I didn't use the orthotic from my doctor in these. I just popped my foot in... at first it was weird. But good. By the second day, fantastic. Im obviously not fixed. And I have to wear shoes all the time or it all just gets worse. But holy heck.

As a younger woman, these aren't a dream to look at but they aren't bad with black skinny jeans.
