Customers find these walking shoes comfortable, with good arch support and cushioning that makes them feel like walking on marshmallows. They appreciate the appearance, color combinations, and lightweight design, and find them ideal for long periods of walking. The fit receives mixed feedback, with some finding them generous while others say they're too narrow.

If you are overweight and walk for exercise (meaning you walk as fast as possible for as long as possible), you won't get enough cushioning from a walking shoe. My walking workouts consist of 3 miles, 3 times a week, on concrete surfaces. I walk as fast as possible, meaning there is more impact on my foot than there would be with casual walking. I've tried several times to use these for my walking workouts, but they do not provide adequate cushioning for my needs. However, I highly recommend Skechers running shoes if you are an overweight walker. I currently use a pair of Go Run shoes for my walking workouts and they are a huge step up, in terms of cushioning, from the typical walking shoe. My only recommendation is to add some type of heel cushioning (I use soft rubber heel cups), as running shoes are designed for a different type of foot strike, leaving an overweight walker feeling as though the heel isn't cushioned enough. As for these GoWalk shoes, I wear them for casual walking (shopping, doing errands, etc.) and they are perfectly adequate for that use. I love the style and the color, but I cannot wear my usual cushioned athletic socks in these shoes, as the fit is too tight. If you want to wear cushioned athletic socks with these shoes, I recommend going up a half size. I hope this review helps others like me who walk for exercise and have difficulty finding shoes with adequate cushioning to support excess weight. For people of normal weight, or those who do not walk for exercise, the shoes will be just right. Otherwise, take a look at any of the Skechers performance running shoes. Your feet will thank you.

Review for Zappos VIP Points (What's this?)

These are super cute shoes but horrible for comfort...no toe support...it's weird, by the end of the day my feet kill in these and my toes hurt the worst, not sure if it's the mesh top and not enough support - I have tried multiple days and same result and end up wearing my old shoes and now need to find a new shoe...ugh..

I really liked the weight and color combination, black and aqua. The size was right 8.5, but with an ankle sock they were too narrow in the toe box. I ordered another pair of "go walk" shoes in wide width but they are too wide. Now I have two pairs of shoes to return.
