I am totally flat-footed in both feet. After consulting a foot doctor and shots in both heels, he recommended these shoes with powerstep insoles. When I first saw these on the website, I thought they looked pretty ugly. After receiving them, I decided they weren't that bad but they would probably hurt my feet. I was wrong again. These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I am used to wearing light and flexible shoes so I figured these shoes would be torture. I was wrong again. These shoes are very light and comfortable. I love the removable insoles as this made it easy for me to install the doctor prescribed insoles. Only thing I've found wrong with them is that there is only one color choice at this price. I will definitely purchase this shoe again!
