These are a really great pair of shoes. They are so padded on the inside it feels like your feet are on pillows. I am a teacher and I bought these shoes to go to work. They are quite comfortable while I remain on my feet from 7 am to 4 pm. Very durable too. They have a few scuff marks (I stumble sometimes) but nothing too serious. Buying two more pairs...rrriiiggghhhhttttt now!
