As someone with pain in the ball of my foot for many years, I am always on the lookout for comfortable shoes I can wear for work in my office environment, and these fit the bill.  The shoes are wide enough across my foot that they don't pinch, but fit well in the heel so they don't slip.  The strap is adjustable, so I can keep them snug but loosen them up if my feet swell a bit by the end of the day.  I like the fact that although there is a good arch support, it is comfortably padded.  I can remove the insole and use my custom orthotic when my feet are particularly sensitive.  The shoes are stylish enough to wear with pants for work, but ok with jeans on the weekend too.  If you haven't worn them before, the rocker bottom sole takes a little getting used to, but takes a lot of stress off the front of my feet.  The color is different from the image online, more of a cross between gray and tan.  This actually works out well for me since I can wear them with both gray and brown pants.  I got them at a fabulous price on clearance - my friends couldn't believe how little I spent for a pair of MBT shoes!  I am a big advocate for the brand now, and I am definitely on the lookout for more styles and colors.
