I ordered these from Amazon and never got the package. I should've taken that as a sign and looked for a different shoe, but I had my heart set on these (they are SO CUTE) so I found them in store and purchased. I wore these once and took them back. I have another pair of New Balance and thought these would be comparable, but these are much stiffer and not as padded. The bottom insert with the cushion padding is awkward and at times feels uncomfortable. I am back to using my ugly neon gym shoes and will continue searching for something better.
