text: I bought these because they showed they had arch support.  I have been having issues with my tendon in my left foot for 2 years so I need shoes that provide relief to my foot (in the of arch support now).  I had to give up my regular Sketchers which I hated, but they didn't have the support I needed.  But these do - my goodness.  I wear Brooks and New Balance shoes now with the roll bar and these Sketchers feel just as good on as those other shoes do by Brooks and New Balance.  I can wear them all day and my foot does not get tired.  I totally recommend these if you have any kind of major foot issue.  I will definitely be looking at getting another pair when I need one.
