So far, so good.
I haven't been able to wear anything without inserts for 5 years since a plantars flare up. It didn't matter how much I spent, the support wasn't enough. I have been wearing my new pair on weekends and in the evenings (they look a little too casual for work) for the last 10 days without needing inserts. That saved me 50 bucks alons. I also needed a wider toe box in something that didn't look "corrective," and these are just right. They are affordable, wellmade and arrived sooner than the original estimation.
