text: I held off reviewing these shoes because I wanted to take the time to really try them out.  What convinced me to try them initially was a 30 day money back guarantee - they are a little pricey but I thought they would be worth it IF they worked as claimed.  I was pretty skeptical since my feet had become so painful that I was having trouble walking any distance without the aid of a cane.<br />I've been using them for just over a month now and I will not only be keeping these shoes, I will be ordering another pair.  I have not used my cane since I started wearing them and I find I'm no longer trying to &#34;save steps&#34; to avoid the constant pain. I did not expect this dramatic of an improvement but they really have made a huge difference in my daily life.
