"I'm not "old." I'm under 30. But since I run and wear fancy shoes to work, I have bunions and my feet hurt, a lot, after wearing some shoes for only an hour. But these? They are so comfortable. It is obvious an orthopedist developed these. The leather upper stretches and doesn't give you a blister. There's some miracle padding in the sole that is soft and supportive. I wore these all day to work and then walked my dog in them after with absolutely no problems. My one complaint is that after wearing them a bit, my big toe has slightly worn down the inner lining in the toe box. But I do not care much about that, and I am purchasing these shoes in every color offered."
