I bought these sneakers for around the house and they are perfect for that purpose. I would not want to wear them for a longer time or even for going for a walk because they will make my feet hurt after wearing them for about 30 minutes. I will get some insoled with support and see how they work then. I have not worn them much yet but they streched out already and feel somewhat loose. Like I said for around the house or to get the mail they are perfect just to slip on.
