Completely worth it if you have foot issues/psin! I’ve been wearing Brooks or Hoka for years and they provided some support.So glad I stumbled upon these. Not sure where these have been my whole life or how I missed these?! I’m trying to do all I can to avoid having a fusion of my large metatarsal. These will at least get me through a few months until I can plan for the long recovery. The rocker bottom soles on these shoes, takes all the pressure off the large metatarsal and off your heel. I only wish I had discovered these years ago because maybe I wouldn’t need the fusion of my toe/foot. These are outstanding! If you have Rheumatoid or osteoarthritis, highly recommended!
