The shoes are comfortable. My first impressions of them were that they looked like something that old men wear. My wife had the same impression. They do provide great support for the arch and provide ankle stability. Perhaps a different color other than W or B?

I have worn a 9.5(E) or a 10(E) on all the other shoes I've ever owned. So it took a fair bit of trial and error to figure out that 9(4E) was the perfect size for me. The 9.5(4E) worked reasonably well, but it was a bit floppy, leading to some heel slippage. Other than that, these shoes are like a cheat code. I can walk faster, and with more stability, for longer, without noticing. My primary use case was at a treadmill desk. Before these shoes, anything faster than 1.8mph made it hard for me to type due to all the bouncing. With these, I could do 2.2mph with ease. Once I dialed in the size (and hence eliminated the need for returns), I introduced a pair of Superfeet Adapt Run insoles. These really took it to a new level. I have not been so excited about a pair of shoes in, well, ever?

The fit is great. I only wish they looked a bit more like a sneaker. BTW, this is my second pair.

Excellent for people with flat feet. Also an amazingly well built shoe. Very well insulating, works well in a wide range of temps, from hot to cold. Great for casual hiking as well. I dont run with flat feet, so appreciate a walking shoe. Have been using this shoe for more than ten years now, lost count of how many pairs over the years.

This shoe offers firm, comfortable walking support. This is available in half sizes above size 12 which is really nice. I walk approximately 4 miles for daily exercise and find this shoe has a good grip on surfaces. The shoes last me at least 200-300 miles. Sometimes I stub my toe, and this eventually wears on the little front flap that covers the toe and causes it to pull away from the shoe -- that's the only thing I can say is a negative.

The shoe is great except that it doesn't breathe and makes my feet sweat even in 40 degree weather. I don't visualize that I will be able to wear it in the summer.

Ok this is the third pair of this walking shoe Ive purchased but I noticed I was slipping a little on wet surfaces outside. Then I saw the design of the sole has changeda lot. Wish they had maintained the old design , as I never had that issue with previous walkers in the same make. I guess in future I will ask to see the sole before purchasing, or look at different models.. although the trend seems to be geared more to running shoes now . You could consider theres a large number in the senior market looking for good walking shoes.

Always supportive and comfortable. Great fit. These are my work shoes for the therapy sport fitness center where I work and its easier to get through my day with them. Also Im type 2 diabetic so foot care is important.

Too stiff. Should have stayed with the Glycerin. If I hadnt tried them twice I would have returned them. I only walk ( 3.5-3.8 mph) dont run. Probably will stay with the Glycerin for distance walking and only use the Walker for rare short slow walks.

I have experience with the Addiction Walker 1 shoes which I would rate 5 stars. The Addiction Walker 2 series seems to be slightly narrower than Addiction 1. In general, Addiction Walker shoes require several months of break-in to enhance the comfort. So, I haven't used the Addiction Walker 2 series long enough to compare to the old version for maximum comfort. Additionally, I may modify with custom sole inserts. The quality seems fine.

Absolutely amazing pair of shoes! I had a hard time finding leather shoes that matched hospital regulations (especially considering I'm flat footed). These were the only ones I could find that provided the support I need for 12 hr shifts while providing protection/easy to clean. The only reason I gave these 4 stars is due to the lack of breathability.

Per my orthotics maker this is the tennis shoe I should be wearing and it and version 1 have been great. Just dont hide the version with laces in your ads.

these are my work shoes (mailman) been walking about 7 miles a day with these for the last month. traction is phenomenal! the toes have already come unglued after less than 200 miles walked... the shoes have remained comfortable despite such hard wear and tear in such a short amount of time.
