I went to the doctor yesterday and he said I have Plantar Fasciitis. He said get a second pair for the house. Not good to be bare feet.
So I went to llbean today skokie il old orchard. The lady was very helpful. These are the best. The heel does slip a little but its really comfortable. And my 9 medium is good. 8.5 is too tight. So the review that said order down is incorrect.
Anyhow these are not good for plantar faciitis as the other review said. I had to remove the insole it came with and buy the llbean generic insole that is grey on top and green on the bottom.
And coupled with a thick sock and my other over the counter sofsole orthotics. The orange ones made for plantar fasciitis.
But anyhow it is really comfortable. And the black generic llbean soles the shoes came with worked for my other shoes that I accidently threw out the orthotics.
The orange super feet I got before was no good. But the generic ones work. So not a waste.
These shoes fit great. Comfortable, nice looking. ..would be nice to offer more colors. Have purchased these and the suede, both wear well and are great for walking.
My dad doesn't buy things for himself, so this was a gift from the grandkids so they are his favorite shoes for those reasons..but they are a comfortable and good looking shoe for all seasons and purposes. He has a smaller foot but he loves the shoe. Would buy one for myself when the next occasion arises. A versatile and well-built shoe.
Love this shoe. It is my preeminent all-day, cool/cold weather, comfort, errands/casual shoe. I am a standard size 9 in ladies' shoes. I like to have a little extra room in my closed-up shoes, for thick socks. A size 8 in this shoe fits the bill perfectly.
