These shoes are great for people with problem feet.  I am a nurse at a hospital and have plantar fasciatis along with "NO" fatpads left on the bottom of my feet.  My feet still hurt - but not as bad.  Was almost considering having to change to Home health or something where I would be on my feet less.  Still may have to - but these shoes have certainly helped.  Wish they were a little prettier & had more options to choose from.
