I just purchased my 4th pair of these shoes and will purchase more.  I am a cashier at a local department store.  I am on my feet for 8 hours at a time. These are the only shoes I've ever owned that don't leave my feet screaming in pain.  I returned to work after being home for 8 years as a stay-at-home mom and prior that held office jobs.  Not since I was a teen have I held a job standing as much as I do now.  Whether I'm running from register to register or just standing at one register, the result is always the same, my feet feel great at the end of my shift.  These shoes are a must for anyone who spends long periods on their feet.
