I suffer from severe psoriasis and along with that, I get severe edema in my lower legs (extremely bad swelling). Because of that, I have had to get all new shoes because I never know if my ankles will fit into mine. It also causes me to not be on my feet much because the longer I am, the more painful it is.I saw these shoes and thought they would be very comfortable to wear every day. I also thought against getting them because honestly, I thought they looked like something an old person would wear!The day they were delivered, I immediately tried them on my feet. I was totally blown away by how amazing they felt!!! I have had plenty of different slipon shoes, but none of them have ever been as comfortable as these are. And the support!! It feels like your feet are getting a constant hug every single minute that you have them on.I have worn these for around 14-16 hours at a time and when I was finally able to take them off, I was shocked to find that my feet didn't hurt like always.As for the appearance of them, well I have actually had a lot of nice compliments on them!!So if you need a pair of shoes that you can wear for hours at a time and not have tired achy feet when you're done, then I highly recommend this pair. It literally doesn't matter what the price is to me because having feet that don't hurt at all by the end of the day is worth every penny to me
