I never thought I would own a pair because I think they look rediculous. But I have painful bone spurs on my heel and went to a podiatrist and they actually sold them in the office. I didn't buy them there because their prices were so high, but went to a store and bought a pair. I got the Yukon Clogs because they look the most like a regular shoe when you are wearing them. Even the strap in the back doesn't touch my bone spurs, so they feel so much better than any shoes I've EVER worn. Now I'm sure that I will always own a pair and they will be the only shoes I wear, except for a couple of hours on Sundays at church.
