When I first put on the shoes they seemed very comfortable and provided cushioned support; then after having them on a while, I felt my feet tingling like they were falling asleep. The shoes have an adjustable strap, so I adjusted the strap so that it wasn't so tight. I still felt like it was shutting off the circulation. I have no explanation for why it felt this way, but I returned the shoes. I like Clarks shoes in general and will continue to try other styles in their line.
