these are great shoes for feet.  I am on my feet 9 hours every day on a concrete factory floor.  I am also suseptible to plantars facitis.  My husband works in a factory also and he prefers Reebok Simplytone, a little more gushy but I think less arch support.  So far Reebok toning shoes do the best job.  We buy a supply of them for my husband and I when they are on sale.  We also wear them for everyday use.
