OrthofeetWomen's Orthopedic Knit Coral Sneakers

I have been wearing this brand of shoe since late last year because severe plantar fasciitis in both feet made walking agonizing. I originally bought a pair of Orthofeet Mary Janes, needing a pair of shoes that could be dressed up or down after experiencing the ordeal of finding a pair of shoes I could wear to my son's wedding and walk without crying. Those ended up alleviating my foot pain to the extent that I decided to give a sneaker style from the same brand a try--hence, this purchase.My plantar fasciitis flare-up began last September and I made my first Orthofeet purchase probably in November. (I can't find a record of it on Amazon, so I might have bought it straight from the brand's website.) By February, when I purchased this pair of shoes, I had already begun to notice a difference. There was some relief from the first time I tried walking with this brand of insole, but the longer I continued to do so, the more improvement I could feel in my foot pain. I think the arch support in the Mary Janes fits my foot slightly better than in these, but these shoes have become my go-to for everyday wear.The few "cons" I can think of with this particular shoe are as follows:1. They squeak. The insoles in my other two Orthofeet shoes do not, so I don't know why this particular shoe is different, but unfortunately it is. However, I can live with squeaky insoles if that means being able to stand and walk around with little to no pain.2. The toe box is not quite as room as I would prefer. The moment I get home, I switch to my Orthofeet sandals, or even to the Mary Janes. However, I think going up to a Wide shoe might make them fit too loosely in the heel area.Those are literally the only problems I can think of with these shoes. The insoles are great and the level of arch support can be tailored to your individual foot's needs. (I need the additional rigid support that goes underneath the main insole.) The insoles are removable and in theory could be used in other shoes if they also have a removable insole, but I haven't tried this yet. The sizing seems to be accurate for me, aside from preferring a slightly more roomy toe box. And I haven't experienced any tendency to slip in these during wet weather, which is a plus for me since I had a bad slip-and-fall back injury a few years ago and prefer to wear shoes as non-slip as possible now. (By the way, since wearing these insoles, I have also had greatly reduced to nonexistent back pain, so I suspect my previous lack of proper arch support was hindering my healing from my back injury.)I have since purchased a pair of summer sandals in this brand and will collect other styles as I can afford them. (Because price is the other drawback to this brand, though it is still in a reasonable enough range that I'm willing to pay a bit more for the pain relief.)

If you are looking for sneakers that can be lace up or slip on -- with good quality foot support -- it comes with 2 sets of laces - ones ties and others slip one. The come with adjustments for heel, arch, etc. I injured my lower back and waqlking was hard so I got big soft Hokas thaqt I LOVE - but they are only lace up -- and, like aqny other lace ups, no matter how I try to do it -- they end up unlaced and someone is tell me "miss your shoes are unlaced." So I went for like sketcher pull ons with kind of fake lace up look, and didn't provide the support I need for heal, etc. and as slip-ons they got loser. I've been trying about 5 types -- and these came today - I saw the laces like NO! Amazon wrong description again! And then saw extra sets of blue laces that you use instead of the yellow to make them "pull on" and no need to tie. Haven't done it yet, lol - but I just KNOW that since the size fits great (an 8's an 8) -- I will conquer the how to switche to the bue slip on laces tomorrow. FINALLY!

Size runs very short

When I first got these shoes, I went on a long walk and they got me a little blister on my ankle. Everything else about this shoe is perfect. It’s nice and wide at the toe and so comfortable plus they come with extra inserts. I loved them so much. I decided to walk short distances in them to see if I could break them in? This worked perfectly now I walk very long distances with no blisters. They’re very comfortable.

‘Comfortable, supportive, well-made, thoughtfully designed, cushioned, and a perfect fit. I have several pair of this brand. The shoes from this company all have good arch support and extra inserts if you need more. I’m flat footed so they’re every thing I need. This pair is a fun bright color and I’m glad I bought them.

The moment I tried on these shoes, they felt like sneakers you've worn to the point where they feel comfortable. I have a lot of problems with my feet, so I never thought I would find shoes that felt so comfortable. I just ordered another pair in a different color.

I needed a supportive tennis shoe with wide toe box and support for pronation of ankles. These arrived and toe box was wide enough but lacked support for pronation. They have great packaging including additional foam inserts to help with sizing and arch supports for both left and right shoes. However, they did not work for me and I have to return them.

My friend loved her shoes. She’s never had expensive pair of shoes and she loved them. She said they don’t hurt her feet a bit and she was gonna wear them to church on Sunday with a purple dress.
