I was wearing the sketchers pull on sneakers to walk from the bus stop to my office, but they looked rediculous with office attire.  These are much better.

It took about a week to break them in, but now they are super comfortable to wear for short walks.  They also look nice enough to wear around the office when I am in a rush.  I think I would like them a little more if they didn't have the heel;  For long distance walking my big toe gets sore from my foot sliding forwards due to the angle.

All in all a great purchase, would purchase again.
