I bought this shoe because I recently started at a job that requires me to stand 8 hours or more. Before this job, I have never stand that long! And I made the mistake of wearing dress shoe to work, so after a week, my week was killing me. There are puses on my feet! I cannot even stand when I got home from work. So, I went online to order this. Initially, I was very disappointed because I expected this shoe to make my feet feel better right away but it did not. It took about a week for me to feel the different. Now, I can stand 10 hours without any problem. I will buy this shoe again in the future.
