I've been buying this shoe for three years.  I keep three pair and rotate wearing them.  When they wear out, they become a gardening shoe.  I don't have foot problems, however, the shoe does have fairly good arch support.  It's also lightweight.  I put them on in the morning in lieu of wearing my slippers around.  They're snug enough for my two-mile walk if I don't feel like changing shoes (although I can't walk as briskly as they aren't quite as secure as athletic shoes).  And...I can wear them without socks in winter in Oklahoma...they're snug enough to keep my feet warm.  I am definitely not a "glitter person", however, the amount on the shoe is so small as to be negligible.  All in all, a perfect casual shoe to wear every day.
