These shoes are great, cute and work!!!! Talk about trifecta! I have had issues with plantar fasciitis for a few years now. I have tried inserts, rest, pt, other brands like keen and nothing has worked. When I put these on I walked all the way around the zoo all day with only mild mild discomfort at the end. Previously, if I was walking in other shoes I notice it the minute I start walking and would be close to tapping out by about a half hour to hour!!! I will keep buying these shoes!
