"I got these shoes to wear in surgery, I am on my feet most of the day and am constantly on the go. I've found these shoes to be very lightweight and comfortable, the shoe bed has a cushion-like quality. They are super easy to clean up, too. I think the shoe sizes tend to run a little larger than normal, usually I wear a pretty standard size 9 but I bought these shoes in an 8. My one concern is that the heel of this shoe is a looser fit, so far I haven't stepped out of, lost a shoe or tripped while I am running around but I would prefer that the heel fit a little more snugly. So far they have given me great traction and stability on the wet and slippery OR floors. This shoe is a very cost effective alternative to some of the more expensive nursing shoes. Overall I'm happy with my purchase!"
