My client has hallux rigidus (sore big toe joint with stiffness).  Her doctor told her to get rocker bottom shoes.  I found these for her because they have cushioning and NO pressure on her big toe joint .  She LOVED them.  Comfortable ... great on her toe joint ... cute.  However, I have given them only two stars because the foot bed fell apart the first time she wore them.  These are different colors of foam GLUED together and the GLUE DOES NOT HOLD.  I replaced the foot bed for her and she still loves the shoes.
