These are listed as Hiking shoes, but are more for every day wear. If you are on your feet all day or need that extra spongy firm grasp with a solid ankle braced shoe then this is a go to. Especially if you have wide feet, or bone spurs or bunions. I have had a few injections in my toe and these shoes help keep the foot in place and out of sore areas for walking. The top part is a bit more form fitting and firm than I would like but it is 100% water splash proof as I was gardening and watering plants and my socks stayed dry and water beaded up. Really good if you work in a bar or other lots of water about shoes. The bottom is thick and I felt tall and supported. They are a bit "dorky looking" and big so wear jeans not shorts and it looks like any other shoe. Not for fashion bit for heath and comfort and I can get behind that. My podiatrist told me they were great for me when I showed her, and I trust her opinion. I will wear these from now on, compared to regular shoes with orthopedic inserts.This shoe has them build in, and the wide is so nice my feet are not squished.Item ordered:Mens Hiking Shoes for Plantar Fasciitis, Orthopedic Walking Shoes with Arch Support, Lightweight Waterproof Sneakers Wide Toe Box Shoes for Foot & Heel Pain Relief (12, Black)Mens Hiking Shoes for Plantar Fasciitis, Orthopedic Walking Shoes with Arch Support, Lightweight Waterproof Sneakers Wide Toe Box Shoes for Foot & Heel Pain Relief (12, Black) 12/6/2024
