My right heel is inflamed and painful with plantar fasciatis . These shoes appear to have the right support and cushioning to ease the pain, allowing me to walk fairly normally.  I ordered them in Pewter which is an okay color, but would have preferred black, which was out of stock.  They are not very attractive shoes, IMO, but serve my purpose. They are okay with long pants, but seem a little clunky with Capris or skirts.  I typically wear flats or sandals which is probably why I have PF, and the mild arch support in these shoes is a better choice in footwear.
