Bought a pair of these shoes - the beige shown above (after a year of walking past them in the mall).  WOW!!!  I ahve had heel issues for the past 6 months - had to stop my daily walks.  Now I am walking every day - I have bought 3 pairs so far.  Two sneaker styles and one maryjane style for work.  I absolutely couldn't live without these!  Also have a pair of boots on back order.  These shoes have allowed me to walk and do small hikes.  Highly recommend them.  Oh and another thing - the look of my legs has changed - more toned and shapely.  I really did not believe that it would do that - was looking for a pair of shoes I could walk in.
