This is not a comfortable shoe at all. The forward slant puts too much weight/pressure on the ball of the foot. While the heel feels like you are walking on a very unstable wiggly sponge. It's ok for limited use but not the type of shoe that you can walk on or stand in for a few hours. I had it on for a few hours today, mostly standing, some walking, an my feet are killing me. Couldn't wait to put my flat house slippers on.
