I have had nothing less than a journey with these shoes. I got them as work shoes and ordered my usual size 8. They were definitely more comfortable than my previous work shoes, and I thought they were good shoes. Until I didn't. My feet started hurting in a completely different way than how they were before, and the more that I wore them, the more they hurt.After some googling I had heard that it was possible the reason for my foot pain was that my shoe was too big. Makes sense. So I ordered a half-size smaller, 7.5. Those were a lot more comfortable as far as my feet went. At least what I could feel of them as a majority of the time it felt like my feet were numb. Better numb than pain at least, right? Well, turns out the shoes weren't wide enough, so I ordered a 7.5 wide.When I tell you, I would happily go through the 2 week long hassle of buying, trying, returning, buying, trying and returning again and again if it meant that I could keep wearing these shoes. They are so comfortable and my feet have never felt better, not to mention the rest of me! My back doesn't hurt anymore, my body isn't sore, and my joints don't sound like Rice krispies when I wake up in the morning anymore!If you have terrible foot pain from low arches, BUY THESE. I work two full time jobs and my feet barely, if ever, ache/hurt at all. These shoes are literally the highlight of my life right now. Use me as an example to avoid the hassle and make sure you buy the right size though.
