Goodness! I didn't expect these sneakers to be quite this fabulous! The price was great - under $40 even after tax and shipping - and sometimes you only get what you pay for. In this case, you get what you pay for and then some. These shoes are the most comfortable shoes I've worn in years. Very lightweight, easy to put on, yet they support my arches and provide excellent cushioning for the heel and balls of the feet. Overall, I am very happy with these. I'm going to order another pair now, just so I have them for later after I wear this set out! For sizing, I wear a 71/2 in 99.9% of my shoes, and that's what I ordered - they fit like a glove. I'm a happy walker! :)
