These work as "dress" shoes for city walking, concert going, anytime at the museum, or when you'll be on your feet on a hard surface.  A real gift from heaven for those of us with painful feet.  The first time my feet haven't given me trouble in years.  Thank you, HOKA!!!  I have four pairs in different colors, and the hiking version of this one, called Stinson, is just as good with deeper hiking tread.
