These are realy quite comfortable shoes.  I bought them because I came down with a horrendous case of plantar fasciitis and thought they might help.  They did.  They take a little getting used to, since the mid-sole is the thickest part and you tend to scuf it more when you first walk in them.  But it's a fast curve and it won't bother you after a day or two.  They are decently made and look nicer than expected for a "therapeutic" shoe.
