Great Shoes If You Have To Stand A Lot

By ken3864569 Ranked #231 - Men's Casual Shoes June 16, 2010

I'm 61 years old, a little over weight. I have to do a lot of standing for my job. I use special socks that apply pressure to help my feet from getting tired.

These shoes are amazing. My feet still get tired but not 'aching', 'hurting' tired compared to other shoes I used. Also, as soon as I take off the shoes after a very long day of standing, the aching goes a way a lot faster, again compared to the previous shoes I used to wear.

I wouldn't recommend buying these if you're going to be doing a lot of walking on uneven terrain. The shoes have a very high platform and I found them a little awkward to walk with at first. I tend to pronate, stepping on the outside of my foot.

But after a month now, I'm getting used to walking with them on a smooth flat surface.

One of the nicest things about these shoes is the ease of kicking them off and slipping them on. Great if you live in a country were you have to take your shoes off before entering a room.

Finally, I'd like to thank Back Country for being one of the few stores that provide International Shipping. I did have to pay about $40 in Duty. But the other store required me to drop a $50 additional fee to cover Duty with the order.

And the shipment was received in 8 days. (US to Japan).

Summary: Great for people who have to stand in one place for long periods of time, and walk on smooth surfaces.

Wouldn't recommend using for travel where you'll be doing a lot of walking.

My normal shoe size is 10 these shoes were size 44. Fit very nicely and look great with men's business slacks.
