I work as a sales associate so I'm on my feet a lot, I had hopes that these shoes would make it easier to stand/walk and bend easier but it didn't. It's not flexible at all and the top part of the shoe is hard and presses down on top of your feet making if uncomfortable and it might leave slight bruises or blisters. Standing still on them it's fine but walking its painful, bending down its almost impossible. I regret very much spending my money on this!!!!
