This shoe is the most comfortable, lightweight, yet stable shoe I have ever worn! It is rare to find a good pair of shoes out of the box, but these are unbelievable! Not only are they sturdy, but without the bulk that a lot of shoes of this type normally have. They provide a good, solid stable base, but are very lightweight. You can walk for hours in this shoe and still feel great! They are very well made and of excellent quality. I plan to get a second pair because I love them so much. They give you an extra spring in your step and feel great. The fit is excellent too. I can't recommend them highly enough, I believe you will love them too!
