I work at a hospital and I am on my feet all day.  I have pinched nerves in the bottom of both  feet.  These shoes are  orthodic friendly and have a wider toe box so my  toes are not  crushed together.  The gel suppor cushions my entire foot.  We are only allowed to wear solid coored  white,black or beige shoes .  I LOVE these shoes, the fit, the comfort, and the color selection and I am noy offended by the price.  I have many of my co workers wearing them and they LOVE them also.  I highly recommend  this show for anyone who has foot problems. they also wear well this is my third pair in two year.  ASICS keep up the good work and don't discontinue this fantastic shoe.  Thanks  Julie
