I bought these for my wife who is a nurse and on her feet all day. She has lived with her feet hurting for many years. We have tried many different brands of shoes. She will wear them out it months and probably will this pair BUT she came home thanking me for talking her into making this purchase instead of her other favorite shoe because for the first time she did not have the normal everyday foot pain she has experienced in the past. A month in and she's still happy with them and pain free.
