I ordered the beige color because it was less expensive and cared more about the structure of the shoe than the color. Have not worn them out of the house yet, but the arch support seems good. Also seems like they will stay put on your feet nicely. I noticed other reviews stating how narrow they are - and I agree. the strap over the toe area is tighter than expected but I am still able to wear them fine (note my feet are typically medium width). Good grip on the bottom, and the inner sole is made of some soft synthetic material which I hope will be more comfortable than the rubber type soles of some shoes in this style.
