These are a very attractive shoe, and great for walking.  I'm a cashier, and stand for long periods of time.  Not a good shoe for that, especially when it's for over 7 hours.  They weren't the right shoe for what I'm doing, otherwise they would probably be fine.  I have a $32 pair of leather Reeboks that are just fine.  I have these for sale on EBay.  Hopefully they will sell, so I can get back at least half of what I paid for them!
