I found these shoes by chance as my feet and toes had such pain when walking a lot, especially on hard surfaces. Also, I needed the back of the shoes to be soft and flexible because my heel hurt if I wore stiff backed shoes (which most shoes are). And all I've been able to wear for years are backless shoes, no matter the season.
I tried these out at Disneyland, where I was able to walk for miles over the entire day without any pain. I was so amazed.
So now I will buy two more pair!
