This is the fourth pair of this shoe I own. It is the only walking shoe that gives me the heel cushioning, the arch support for a high arch and a wider footbed to give my toes some room.  I would have rated it a five, but the top of the shoe soils and stains easily and I've had the stitching at the toe area break and create holes.  If they could ever correct this design flaw, it would be an absolutely wonderful walking shoe.  Also, I wish that this model would co e in other colors!!
