These clogs are the best, if you are standing a lot, shifting weight from side to side doing small movements (ironing) or if you have a waitress job, etc. these are a knee, foot, lower back saver. Fast walking can result in a rolled ankle if you are a city walker (take care). One drawback to online shopping for dansko's - each shoe can vary slightly, in store you can try on multiple pairs of the same size and find best fit for each foot. I get mine stretched occasionally in the bridge. ($9)
