text: I bought these straight from their website. For the love of God, if you have CRONIC plantar fasciitis, DO NOT BUY THESE SHOES. I gave these over a month. First two days were like any shoe, a trial and stiff, and yet bouncy which made me hopeful. By week two I was crying again. I've had this condition for fourteen years. I know to what I speak. I still gave them extra time because they were a gift from my awesome and protective dad. I work anywhere from 32 - 51 hours a week depending on the season. It's on concrete, with the occasional rubber mat. So, yes. It's a bad job and conditions for the issue to begin with and I am in constant search for my best options. This is not it. Don't buy Hoka bondi 3s either.
