I developed plantar fasciitis out of no where and was in so much pain.  I went to my local shoe store that advertised comfortable shoes and these are what they recommended.  Instantly when I put them on, I felt comfort.  I purchased a pair at the store and then I looked on-line and found them much cheaper on Amazon so I purchased them in another color.  I wear this brand pretty much exclusively now and am pain free.  I gave away all of my other shoes that did not have good arch support.  I also have several pairs of this brand in summer sandals. A+ for comfort.
