The Clarks un. Coil shoe is by far the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. It cushions without being too soft so it offers good support. And the ventilation designed into it allows the feet to breathe very well. Also,the quality of materials is excellent-soft supple leather adds to the comfort. Since I cannot wear the same shoes every day(my shoes need to breathe for a day or two), I have four pair of these-two brown, two black in case I need to wear the same color two days in a row; that's how impressed I am with this shoe. I highly recommend them-especially for those people whose feet have thin flesh pads on their walking surface.
