I work in health care and I am on my feet 12-16 hours a day. For the past 6 years I was in severe pain - back/knee/hip. I took a chance and ordered a pair of walking shoes. They have changed my life. By no means am I saying that my pain is 100% gone by it is now tolerable allowing me to enjoy life once more. Just after a few weeks my chiropractor noticed that I was standing straighter and that my mobility was significantly better. I am saving my Pennys to get me another pair. I LOVE these shoes.
