After checking out several different brands of this type of toning walking shoe- I knew this would be the best choice.
First of all- they are very lightweight, compared to several of the other competitors-definitely not klunky feeling at all. I also like the mesh-they keep the feet from getting too heated- and that's a big plus.
I work 8 - 12 hours a day on my feet and I'm happy to say that these are a great improvement over my previous shoes. My feet and legs aren't screaming at the end of the shift like they used to. In fact, they feel pretty good.
There is excellent arch support, and despite another review claiming there is no heel, rest assured, there is ( 1 1/2" heel) and it has great support and just the right amount of cushion. I went with the white and jade-which goes with my uniform and I've gotten a lot of compliments on them, even my husband, who rarely comments on my pick of shoes, couldn't believe how nice they look and if they actually do what they promise-he'll even be more happy-lol!
These are designed to help tone your legs while walking. What could be more easier and honestly, after a quick adjustment period (for me just a few hours) to the design of the shoe, that actually does seem to help propel you, these are incredibly comfortable to wear for extended periods of time, be it general walking or working long hours.
I believe I made the better choice with these over another brand that had been well advertised, but when I tried the other pair on, they felt way heavier and I can't imagine that feeling too good for the long periods of time that these are worn.
Love them! I'm already to order a second pair for home use, they are that comfortable.
