These were the most amazing walking shoe I've ever owned. I walked about 20 miles a week in them for about 3 months before the fit changed. At first, I had a flat surface to stretch my toes out across, but as I continued to wear the shoe, my toes started curling up at the side where my pinky toe is. I love the shoe; I bounced with energy while I wore them, but they don't last very long.
