I Purchased this show "ONLY" because it was labeled as a "WALKING" shoe. I have very bad foot problems and am having issues finding shoes that work for me. This shoe has very little sole and I am trying to figure out how it can be labeled as a walking shoe. I love New Balance but this shoe is not as they claimed. I am going to keep it as I need something to slip on to run outside or go to the store in but I will not be walking any distance in them.
