Got a black pair one week ago.  I've been wearing them since.  It took me last weekend to get used to the arch support. At first I thought this wasn't going to work but I kept wearing them.  Today, at the end of the week, I realized that I haven't had any heel pain all week....except after I wore my regular bedroom slippers... Guess what I just ordered this afternoon?  Yep, a pair of Orthaheel  slippers!!!  --- the shoes are comfortable but do need a couple of days ao allow your feet to adjust to the arch.  They are very roomy in the toes.  I normally am a 6 1/2 but go to a 7 if they aren't wide enough.  I nervously ordered a 6 after reading the reviews.  Perfect fit! And best of all, no heel pain!!!
