I recently purchased these shoes and have never had any problems with my feet, aside from occasional foot pain from plantar fasciitis. By occasional, I mean rarely. My foot would maybe hurt about 5 minutes or so when walking barefoot in the morning and most days not at all. Well, after wearing these shoes, I now suffer from severe plantar fasciitis. (I am not accusing the company of this, I just find it quite a coincidence that immediately after wearing the shoes this occurred.)

I wore them 2 or 3 days for a couple hours at a time and then the foot pain started. My foot hurt with every little step. Even with the support of New Balance my foot still hurts (read: shooting pain). Right now, as I am writing this, my foot is in great pain. I now can only wear my Birkenstocks and I still feel the severe pain with those as well. I hope over time this painful affliction goes away, but right now I am quite disappointed in Skechers. Actually, more than disappointed as now I cannot walk without searing pain in my foot.
