I love this brand! Always comfortable. I wouldn't wear these for an extended walk on the sidewalk (I live in a city and I wouldn't wear ANY flats if I had to walk that far), but they're so convenient to leave at work and slip on every morning. The backs do pinch me a little bit... but frankly, hard to find a pair of shoes that won't do that. I've got tiny but wide feet and I have nothing poking out or stretching! Love em.
