I figured they were a little expensive, but reviews  made them sound really good for working on your feet. I was disappointed. Quality seemed good, they were good looking, but as soon as I put them on I knew there was not much arch support at all, which I was hoping for. Very flat and too firm. Sorry to say I sent them right back and went back to a nonskid shoe I've been wearing for years, at a third the price. Amazon was very good at taking them back.
