text: I'm a big man, 6'4&#34; and 300lbs, and tend to walk to the outside of my feet. I purchased this shoe hoping it would help to compensate for the supination. Unfortunately the unique heel construction had just the opposite effect. The heel is made to be a 1/2&#34; higher than the rest of the sole much like a dress shoe however the raised heel base does not extend all the way to the outside of the sole. It was like walking on a high heeled platform and contributed to my feet to rolling to the outside, ankle twisting.<br />Amazon authorized a return however the seller makes it quite difficult to send them back. Buyer beware.......
